Dahlias

Dahlias

Dahlias are enjoying a huge renaissance in popularity as gardeners realise their value in providing a riot of colour from mid-summer to the first frosts. Just as many perennials are beginning to flag in the heat of summer, dahlias are coming into their own, revelling in the warmth to produce wave after wave of their exuberant blooms. Give them a sunny position with a rich soil and they cannot fail to please.


We have considerably increased our range of dahlias and believe that the selection we now offer allows many harmonious and exciting colour combinations to be made. In every part of the colour spectrum we have tried to include a variety of different dahlia types, to give contrasting shapes and heights within a planting scheme. We have also added the sizes of the flowers, as well as plant heights, since this is difficult to gauge from a photographic image, and can vary enormously from one variety to another. Please use the dimensions as a guide rather than an absolute - actual dimensions can show considerable variations, due to differing cultural conditions.

NOTE: We supply all our dahlias as good-sized tubers. The actual tuber size will, however, vary according to variety and from season to season.

AGM after a variety name denotes the accolade of the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.

PRE-SEASON ORDERING OF DAHLIAS FOR DELIVERY IN SPRING 2011 WILL BE POSSIBLE ON-LINE FROM 1ST JANUARY 2011.

WE WILL ALSO BE TAKING ORDERS AT THE NEW RHS 'CELEBRATION OF PLANTS' SHOW AT HYDE HALL (13-15 TH AUGUST 2010), WHERE WE WILL BE DISPLAYING SOME OF OUR DAHLIA COLLECTION. WE ALSO EXPECT TO HAVE SOME DAHLIA PLANTS FOR SALE AT THE SHOW.
