Meet Dahlia 'Jan van Schaffelaar', a perennial bulbous plant that graces gardens with its perfectly spherical pink flowers. Growing to a height of 60-90 cm, these dense bushes are adorned with dark green leaves, providing a lush backdrop for the sweet-looking pompoms that bloom profusely from mid-summer until the first frost. These artfully shaped dahlias serve as a splendid addition to mixed flowerbeds and containers alike. With their versatile arrangement possibilities, they harmonise beautifully in single-species groups or mixed compositions. Paired with decorative grasses or phloxes, they create a visually appealing display. For a charming rustic corner, consider combining these dahlias with annual cosmos, marigolds, and sunflowers, which will not only beautify your garden but also attract a variety of pollinating insects.
For optimal growth, dahlias thrive in well-lit, wind-protected locations. They prefer permeable, fertile soil rich in humus. Due to their intensive growth, regular watering and fertilisation are essential. Incorporating compost into the soil yields excellent results, both prior to planting and throughout the growing season. To ensure that your 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.
This Large Pack includes 10 first-choice 'Jan van Schaffelaar' dahlia tubers. Each tuber comes with a product label that provides essential information on plant care and cultivation. Elevate your garden's aesthetic with this remarkable variety.
