Description

Dahlia Garden Wonder is a bright red bloom suited to Irish gardeners who want a dependable showpiece dahlia that keeps flowering once it starts. It works best as a focal plant in mixed borders, or planted in small groups to create a strong block of colour that holds a scheme together through late summer. Horticulturists often use this type of dahlia to extend seasonal interest after spring and early summer displays fade, especially in high visibility beds and entrance planting. It performs well in large patio containers where watering and feeding can be controlled, which is a common use case in Irish retail. For cutting, it provides repeat stems, and regular picking or deadheading keeps new buds forming. Plant after frost risk in full sun and fertile, free draining soil improved with compost. Keep moisture steady, pinch early tips for branching if desired, stake in exposed sites, deadhead regularly and feed from bud stage onwards. Lift and store tubers frost free after the first frosts.
