Growing Details
Planting: Plant in spring (or early summer) after the risk of frost has passed.
Plant Spacing: 30–45cm
Pinch: When plants reach 30cm tall
Maintenance: Prolific bloomer that benefits from continuous deadheading.
Harvesting and Vase Life
Harvest: Cut blooms when they are 3/4 open, while petals are still firm at back of flower head.

Dahlias do not continue opening significantly once cut, so timing is important.
