How to recognise it

  • Tightly packed, spherical ball-shaped bloom with densely spiralled petals
  • Petals curve inward giving a honeycomb-like pattern when viewed closely
  • Sturdy, hollow, slightly ridged green stem
  • Mid-green, toothed, paired leaves lower down the stem
  • No scent

Care

Strip any foliage that would sit below the waterline. Recut stems at an angle and place in clean, cool water – dahlias drink heavily so check levels daily. They are sensitive to bacteria, so use a flower food and change the water every two days. Keep away from direct heat and draughts; dahlias are not particularly ethylene-sensitive but benefit from cool conditions.

Easy to confuse with

  • Other ball dahlia cultivars – differ mainly in colour and size
  • Pompon dahlias – smaller, more perfectly globe-shaped blooms
