The Purple Taiheijo dahlia stuns with its charm due to its huge pink-purple flowers. Its loosely arranged, waved petals, emerge from the centre of the flower. Vivid colouring, impressive size of the flowers and their height - up to 120 centimetres - guarantee that Purple Taiheijo dahlia will not go unnoticed. Presented dahlia develops first flowers atop its stems in July while the last buds unfold until the first frost in autumn.

Growing dahlias brings satisfying results on sunny sites that are also sheltered from winds. 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 placed into a ventilated container filled with sawdust or peat and kept in a room that is protected from frost.
