Click name to see details: [ Dahlia ] Dianthus ] [ Dicentra ]

Dahlia:

Well-known tuberous plants and large, blousy flowers from high summer on into autumn. Keep them dead headed. Give them good, well-firmed soil, stake earlier to avoid stems snapping and store the dormant tubers frost-free over winter (some people leave them in the ground but it is a bit of a risk). 

We may have more varieties later in the season.

Perfect Partners: Dahlia David Howard is a stalwart of the October border in our garden joining Achillea Cloth of Gold, Aster Little Carlow and Helenium Flammenspiel in a riot of colour.

Our favourite! Large pale orange flowers (decorative style) and divided bronzed foliage. 3 - 4ft tall. A real asset in the late summer border. Pot-grown tubers.
