Description

Dahlia Glory of Heemstede is used where Irish gardeners and horticulturists want clear, bright golden yellow that reads well in mixed weather and stays visible at distance. Yellow dahlias are commonly placed in high visibility beds, entrance planting and public schemes to lift the overall palette and to keep borders looking fresh through late summer. In private gardens, it is a strong choice for front borders and large patio containers where the colour can be enjoyed daily.The blooms sit well in hot colour schemes with oranges and reds, or as a single bright accent in cooler planting with purples and blues. It also makes a useful cut flower, adding clean brightness to summer bouquets. Pair it with salvias, nepeta, ornamental grasses, rudbeckia and echinacea for a long season border that holds colour into autumn. Plant after frost risk in full sun and fertile, free draining soil improved with compost. Keep moisture steady, deadhead regularly and feed from bud stage onwards. Stake if exposed.
