Infuse your garden with a burst of colour courtesy of the decorative 'Rancho' dahlia. This standout variety promises not only vibrancy but also a touch of elegance to any garden setting. Its grand, double blooms, reminiscent of chrysanthemums, are a visual treat with their apricot-orange hue. Growing to an impressive height of 90-120 cm, the 'Rancho' dahlia is undeniably a garden centrepiece.

Perfectly suited for both sunny and semi-shaded spots, the 'Rancho' dahlia thrives best when not overshadowed by other plants. Its health and vibrancy are contingent on good drainage, ensuring the tubers remain rot-free. Whether you're designing flower beds, lining borders, or seeking the perfect cut flower, its voluminous blooms are a sight to behold both outdoors and in ornate vases indoors.

While 'Rancho' is adaptable to a range of soil conditions, it truly flourishes in soil that's both permeable and fertile. As winter approaches, its sensitivity to frost necessitates some extra care. It's advisable to unearth the plant and store its tubers in a dry space, maintaining temperatures between 2-5°C. During this dormant phase, shield the rhizomes with peat, and if they appear shrivelled, a light misting of water will rejuvenate them.

For optimal results, plant the 'Rancho' dahlias between April and June. The process is straightforward: bury the tubers so they're covered with a 5 cm layer of soil, ensuring a spacing of 40-60 cm between each plant. After planting, drench the soil generously. Subsequent watering should be done as the soil begins to dry, being cautious to avoid both over-watering and letting the soil become parched.

Opt for the 'Rancho' dahlias and let your garden be a canvas of vibrant colours and unparalleled beauty. This dahlia variety promises to infuse life and vibrancy into your outdoor space, and when brought indoors, it adds a touch of nature's splendour to your decor.
