Description

Dahlia Honka Yellow is valued for its open, single blooms and star-like form—very different to the dense decorative types. That open flower shape is also useful for biodiversity-focused customers, as pollinators can access the centre more easily than on fully double forms.

Plant tubers after frost risk has passed, in full sun and free-draining soil improved with compost. Water to establish, then keep moisture steady through the season, especially in containers.

Deadheading keeps the plant producing new buds. Feeding from bud stage helps maintain flowering into autumn. In windy Irish gardens, support can prevent stem damage and keep plants looking tidy in the border.

Lift and store tubers for winter in most areas. With correct storage, customers can replant year after year, which supports repeat footfall for seasonal add-ons (compost, feed, supports, labels).
