Dahlia 'Stargazer'

Dahlia 'Stargazer' is an attractive dahlia mix, producing large single blooms in a range of different colours. The petals of each bloom reflex (turn back) to create the star effect. It's perfect for growing in a mixed herbaceous border, and makes an excellent cut flower.

For best results, grow Dahlia 'Stargazer' in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. Deadhead regularly and feed with a potash-rich fertiliser to prolong flowering. Lift tubers after the first frosts and store them in a cool, dry situation until March. Then pot them up and keep them in a temperate greenhouse before planting out in late May.
