Description

Bio Dahlia Manhattan Island is a strong organic choice for customers looking for bright, energetic colour that lasts. Dahlias extend the garden season, providing fresh flowers from mid summer into autumn, and they can also contribute useful late season forage in mixed planting schemes when many earlier flowers have finished.

This variety is best used where it can be seen, near paths, patios and seating areas, or repeated through a border for a consistent block of colour. It pairs well with late salvias, echinacea, ornamental grasses and compact shrubs, creating a layered, professional look that works in Irish gardens and commercial planters alike.

Plant tubers after frosts, in full sun and well drained, fertile soil. Compost improvement helps with both feeding and moisture balance. Water to establish, then keep evenly moist through summer. Deadhead regularly to keep new buds forming and feed through the flowering period for best continuity. Lift and store tubers frost free after the first frosts for repeat success.
