Dahlia Tubers

Dahlias can either be grown in the ground after the last frost, between April and May, or can be started indoors in pots for earlier growing between March and April. A tip for promoting the growth of many flowers on your dahlias is to regularly deadhead your plants, and to use a slow-releasing fertiliser if growing them in pots. Make sure to water your dahlias regularly, especially in dry weather.

Over the last few years, we have seen renewed interest in these amazing plants, and every summer, our trials garden becomes ablaze with colour for a long stretch and sees us cutting armfuls of blooms for months. A growing guide for further advice on getting the most from your dahlia tubers will be included with all orders.

Dahlia petals can be eaten, and are great for adding colour to salads. To learn about which other flowers are edible, our guide to edible flowers contains details on interesting ways to add them to your food and drink.
