Introducing Dahlia 'Jan van Schaffelaar', a perennial bulbous plant that boasts perfectly spherical pink flowers. With dense bushes reaching heights of 60-90 cm, this variety is adorned with dark green leaves, providing a lush backdrop for the charming pompoms that bloom from mid-summer until the first frost. These artfully shaped flowers make a splendid addition to mixed flowerbeds and containers. Whether planted in single-species groups or mixed compositions, these dahlias harmonise beautifully with decorative grasses and phloxes. For a charming rustic touch, consider pairing them with annual cosmos, marigolds, and sunflowers, which will attract a variety of pollinating insects to your garden.

For optimal growth, dahlias prefer well-lit, wind-protected locations and thrive in permeable, fertile soil rich in humus. Their intensive growth necessitates regular watering and fertilisation. Incorporating compost into the soil yields excellent results, both prior to planting and throughout the growing season. To ensure these dahlias return year after year, it's crucial to dig up the rootstock in autumn. Once properly dried and cleaned, the rootstock should be stored in a container filled with sawdust or peat and placed in a frost-free environment.
