The standout feature of Dahlia 'Ellen Huston' is its striking, almost purple-black foliage. These dark leaves set off the intense red, ball-shaped flowers beautifully, creating a remarkably bold contrast in the garden. Its naturally neat, compact habit makes it an excellent choice for containers on the patio, along paths, or right at the front of a border. Importantly in cultivation, the double flower heads are held securely on strong stems, so there is no need for staking.
Plant in spring, once the soil is well warmed.
The recommended depth is 10 cm.
Allow 30-40 cm between plants.
This variety reaches 45-60 cm.
Flowers from July to October.
It is not frost-hardy, so after the first frosts the tubers should be lifted and stored in a cool, dry place.
Suitable for pots, balcony boxes, and as a low edging plant in borders. The contrast between the dark leaves and red flowers makes it possible to create bold colour combinations. It is also suitable for cutting - the compact flowers keep their freshness in a vase for a long time.
