Description

Dahlia Bluetiful is chosen for its cool, contemporary colour range, sitting in violet to purple tones that work well with modern planting trends. Irish horticulturists often use this type of colour with ornamental grasses, salvias, nepeta and silver foliage to create a calm, designed look that still performs strongly through late summer. It is also a useful contrast plant in warmer schemes, adding a cooler note among oranges and yellows.
In borders, plant in groups for block effect or weave through a scheme to create repeated colour points. It offers good cut stems for contemporary bouquets. Plant after frost risk in full sun and free draining soil. Keep moisture steady, deadhead consistently for repeat buds and feed from bud stage.
