Dahlias
Dahlias show full, layered blooms in a wide range of sizes, shapes and colours, from compact pompons to large dinner-plate forms. They work beautifully as a bold focal flower in seasonal arrangements.

Caring for dahlias
Recut stems under water and remove any foliage that would sit below the waterline. Dahlias are thirsty and drink heavily, so check and top up water levels daily. They are sensitive to bacterial blockage, so use clean buckets and flower food. Keep away from direct heat and draughts; they are not notably ethylene-sensitive but age faster in warm rooms.
- Remove leaves below the waterline
- Recut 2–3 cm at an angle
- Fresh water and flower food every 2–3 days
- Keep away from heaters and ripening fruit
