Description
A collection of 3 Dahlias, with radiant and shimmering colors! Their perfectly round flowers, shaped like big pompoms, bloom abundantly for 4 months in a whirl of orange, yellow, red, salmon, and magenta purple, enhanced by their honeycomb texture that plays with light. These Dahlias, carried by well-coloured stems in red or purple, truly shine in shrub and perennial beds, as well as in homemade bouquets with ferns and grass flowers, for example.
This collection consists of:
- 1x Dahlia 'Sylvia' ball: spherical flowers, captivating, with a warm and soft mandarin color. They are made up of multiple petals arranged with millimetre precision, playing beautifully with light. Height: 1 m (3ft)
- 1x Dahlia 'David Howard': flowers of 9-10 cm (4in), precisely organized in countless honeycombs, gently colored in salmon orange and highlighted with magenta purple, with chocolate foliage. This compact plant does not exceed 70-80 cm (28-32in) in height.
- 1x Dahlia ball 'Red Fox': 8 cm (3in) diameter flowers, with petals or ligules forming a dense ball, of a bright and uniform red, with a velvety appearance. The plant forms a leafy clump of about 1 m (3ft) in height.
To encourage repeat flowering, make sure to remove faded flowers, or even better, regularly make large colourful bouquets by combining them with other varieties. With their flamboyant coloured flowers, the dahlias in this collection go particularly well with white and pale yellow flowers, or even blue ones. Combine them with Asters, for example, which bloom at the same time, as well as grass flowers at their peak of beauty, or even Helen's Flowers and Echinaceas. They also allow bouquets to be adorned until late in the season.
As a star plant for borders and herb gardens, Dahlias confidently accompany the most beautiful flowers but are also appreciated alongside vegetable plants. In Mexico, this tuber was first cultivated as a root vegetable for consumption. But its poor taste relegated it to the rank of ornamental plant. Since then, interest in their beautiful exuberance has never waned.

Planting and care
Plant your dahlias in the spring in deeply worked soil, enriched for example with crushed bone or dehydrated blood. Place your tuber and crumble the soil well to fill without any air pockets. Your dahlia should be covered with 6 cm (2in) of soil. At the end of planting, pour a litre of water. Water regularly during the first 6 weeks to help with rooting. Dahlias are sensitive to cold, so they need to be overwintered. In November, the first frosts will blacken the foliage, which is the time to dig them up. Carefully remove the tubers. Remove as much soil as possible. Let the foliage dry so that the tuber can replenish its reserves. When the foliage is dry, cut the stems 10 cm (4in) from the tuber. Spread your bulbson newspaper in a box. Store in a frost-free, dry, cool, and dark place.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
