Introducing the Anemone Dahlia 'Inca', a dwarf variety that boasts lush stems and a profusion of unique flowers. This particular variety is distinguished by its intricate floral structure, featuring a centre filled with small, tubular petals, encircled by a collar of slightly larger, elliptical petals. The 'Inca' dahlia captivates with its dark, velvety red hue. Despite its petite size, this dahlia is a standout choice for bordering walkways and adorning balcony boxes. Its striking appearance, coupled with a long and generous flowering period, makes it an ideal selection for home gardens, recreational plots, and urban flower beds. The noble 'Inca' dahlia also serves as an exquisite filler for vases and is a splendid choice for floral arrangements.
For optimal growth, dahlias prefer permeable and fertile soil. Less robust varieties will benefit from regular fertilisation and irrigation. It's advisable to enrich the soil with compost or slow-release compound fertiliser prior to planting. When cultivating dahlias, it's best to avoid nitrogen-based fertilisers, as they promote foliage growth at the expense of flowering. To prolong and enhance blooming, it's recommended to remove faded inflorescences.
Dahlia tubers are sensitive to low temperatures and must be dug up before winter in colder climates. After the first frost, which will kill the above-ground parts, the stumps should be excavated. Frozen stems should be cut off above the ground, and the rootstock carefully dug up. Once lightly cleaned and dried, the dahlia roots should be stored in a dry, airy room, well-protected against frost. For best results, store the tubers in baskets or openwork boxes, covered with layers of peat or sawdust. Replant the tubers once the threat of spring frost has passed.
