Dahlia Large Red Bulbs are a striking addition to any garden, showcasing bold, crimson blooms with velvety petals that form large, lush flowers. These impressive dahlias can grow up to 15-20 cm in diameter, creating a dramatic statement in flower beds, borders, or as the centrepiece of a garden display. Their vibrant red colour and sizeable blooms make them a favourite for cutting, bringing a splash of brilliance indoors in floral arrangements. Versatile and eye-catching, Dahlia Large Red Bulbs thrive in various garden settings, adding a touch of elegance and vivid colour wherever they are planted.
Planting instructions
Plant the bulbs in well-drained soil, ensuring they receive plenty of sunlight. Position them in an area where they have space to grow without overcrowding. Plant the bulbs 4 to 6 inches deep in the soil to provide a stable base for the plant. Space each bulb 15 to 20 inches apart to ensure adequate air circulation and room for growth.
Growing Requirements
Pests
Watch for common pests such as aphids and slugs, and treat them with appropriate organic insecticides. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases like powdery mildew.
soil
These dahlias thrive in fertile, well-drained soil with plenty of organic matter. Amending the soil with compost before planting can enhance growth.
spot
Choose a sunny spot in your garden where the plants will receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
temperature
Dahlias prefer mild temperatures ranging from 15°C to 25°C. Protect them from extreme heat and frost.
watering
Water the plants regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulching can help retain soil moisture.
how to harvest
Cut the flowers early in the morning or late in the evening when they are fully open but still fresh. Use a sharp knife or pruning shears to make a clean cut just above a leaf node, then place the stems immediately in water.
