Large creamy lemon-toned cactus type blooms held on tall stems. Long flowering period throughout Summer and Autumn. Excellent cut flower.

How To Grow
Prepare the soil by adding organic matter and compost. Dig in some blood and bone prior to planting. Plant in a moist well drained soil, protected from wind. Provide a stake before planting and tie the plant as it grows. Dahlias tolerate morning or afternoon shade. The long flowering period lasts from early Summer to late Autumn. Dahlias prefer a full sun to part shade position. Plants usually take 120 days to flower once planted, and with deadheading, will continue to flower for months.
