Description
Why we love it:Dahlia 'Thomas A Edison' is one of our absolute favourite dahlias It belongs to the decorative group of dahlias and is a true show stopper with its plum-purple coloured flowers which are held on sturdy dark stems Thomas A Edison is easy to grow, and if you keep on picking the flowers it will bloom right through the summer months until the first frosts Dahlias make superb cut flowers and are also easy to grow
What you need to know: 1 x Dahlia 'Thomas A Edison' (1 Tuber) Herbaceous perennial Height: 120cm Prefers full sun or partial shade Planting time: plant when winter is completely over, when there are no signs of late night frosts. A good time to plant dahlias is between late April and mid-May Flowering period: July - October/ November In mild areas with free-draining soil, Dahlia tubers can be left to overwinter in the ground or pots, but in colder areas lift and store to protect them from the worst winter weather. Do this as soon as the first frosts have burnt the leaves back. Then cut back the top-growth to 15cm (6in) and lift the plants from the ground. As much soil as possible is cleaned off, before trimming any straggly, fine roots. Store them in boxes of dry compost to overwinter them in the garage, although any cool but frost-free place would do. The tubers are replanted in the spring once the danger of frosts has passed Ensure Dahlias are watered daily during dry spells. Do not water overwinter From Kapiteyn
