Description

The Dahlia 'Maroon Fox' is a variety of dark red mini ball dahlias that blooms from July to October.

This perennial has swollen tuberous roots. Gathered in bundles, these tubers produce upright, hollow and branched stems, bearing compound, odd-pinnate leaves with rounded leaflets. Solid, fleshy stems, 85cm (34in) tall, are topped with flowers with wide, flat, rather incurved, 10cm (4in) in diameter, very dark red ligules.

The 'Maroon Fox' Dahlia grows in rich, clayey but healthy, deeply worked soil in warm and sunny locations, sheltered from prevailing winds. It languishes in poor, sandy soils.

The 'Maroon Fox' Dahlia is used in mixed flower beds with other varieties or for making bouquets.

Tips: When planting, take into account the dimensions for the composition of your flower beds.

Planting and care

The 'Maroon Fox' Dahlia should be planted from mid-April to early May, at a depth of 10 to 15cm (4 to 6in) and with a spacing of 60cm (24in). Always stake the plants and tie the young stems loosely. Apply slow-release compost or organic fertiliser during planting, and liquid fertiliser once a month during the growing season. Water without wetting the foliage. There is no need to remove buds on this variety. Treat against aphids and slugs. Dig up the tubers before the frost, cutting the stems to 15cm (6in) from the stump. Store them in a cool, well-ventilated and dark place, not too humid. Transplant them in early May when the risk of frost has passed.
