Place the dry tubers in a shallow tray, just covered with slightly moist potting compost, sand or vermiculite.
Once the first frosts of autumn have blackened the foliage, carefully lift and clean the tubers and allow them to dry naturally indoors.
#Dahlia dreamy days series
They do equally well on hot summer days as on rainy, windy days. Dreamy is a unique mid-sized dahlia series with dark burgundy foliage and medium-sized, semi-double flowers in a range of two-tone colors with a dark eye. Garden care: Provide a high-nitrogen liquid feed each week in June, then a high-potash fertiliser each week from July to September. The Dreamy-varieties are robust and tolerant with a medium high, compact growth habit. A star of the British summer, this dahlia gives flower after dreamy flower with bicolour ombre pink to magenta petals and a dark centre.A compact variety, excellent for pots and containers, the cut flowers are stunning and long-lasting in a vase, too. Rising on sturdy stems above shiny, dark bronze foliage, the flowers are ‘self-cleaning’ and will drop away removing the need to regularly deadhead from summer till the first frosts. Hardiness: half hardy (will need winter protection)Ī double row of neon pink petals, shading to dark red bases, with an open, yellow centre describe the beautiful blooms of ‘Dreamy Nights’.This Dreamy Eyes has apricot coloured flowers with an orange centre and is a dream for every garden.
They are care-free because they are self-cleaning. The vivid coloured flowers gives a great contrast against the burgundy-bronze foliage. This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring. These Dreamy Dahlias are flowering machines.
