Introducing Dahlia 'Café au Lait Twist', a luxurious variety that exudes elegance with its captivating bi-coloured blooms. Standing tall at approximately 100 cm, this dahlia is a showstopper, particularly in late summer gardens yearning for a splash of colour. The flowers unfurl in a creamy hue, adorned with irregular raspberry-pink stripes, offering a delightful contrast to its intricately serrated leaves. Whether planted as a standalone specimen or as part of a mixed border, this dahlia is a prolific bloomer from July until the first autumn frost, making it a versatile addition to any garden.

For optimal growth, dahlias thrive in full sun, as ample sunlight enhances flower colouration. Given their tall stature and somewhat delicate stems, a sheltered spot away from strong winds is advisable. The soil should be neutral to slightly alkaline, nutrient-rich, well-drained, and consistently moist. Plant the tubers at intervals of 50-60 cm and at a depth of 5-10 cm, anytime from April to June. During dry spells, regular watering is essential, as is feeding with organic or mineral fertilisers.

For continued blooming, it's recommended to deadhead spent flowers, allowing the plant to focus its energy on new bud production. As dahlias are not frost-hardy, their tubers must be lifted come autumn. After cutting back the stems, carefully dig up the tubers and store them in a dry, cool environment at approximately 2-4°C. For added protection, cover the tubers with sand or peat.
