The anemone-flowered Fenna Baaij dahlia is a great addition to every garden composition thanks to its pale pink flowers that are adorned with a touch of gold dust. Flowers of this dahlia group are built in an unusual way. A single whorl of backward bending petals carries a convex pillow consisting of dozens of disc florets. This type of dahlia possesses an undeniable charm that we recommend displaying on perennial borders or in single-species grouping. Its large tufts look great at the grass background or spread alongside building walls. The unique colouring of the highly ornamental flowers perfectly fills the void that occurs at the end of the growing season. Several fully developed flowers, cut and put into a vase, creates a cosy romantic ambience indoors.

Growing dahlia on sunny situations that are also sheltered from wind brings satisfying results. The impressive dahlia tufts thrive in a permeable, fertile soil with high content of organic matter. An intensive dahlia growth requires regular watering and feeding with fertilizers. The application of compost, both before planting rootstock and during the vegetation period, usually brings excellent results. To enjoy wonderful dahlia blooms each year, its rootstock must be dug out in autumn. The properly dried and cleaned rootstock should be stored in a room that is protected from frost. After the dormancy stage, dahlia can be planted again mid-May.
