Planting:

1. Dig a hole slightly larger than the plant’s pot.
2. Remove the dahlia from the pot carefully to avoid damaging the roots.
3. Place the plant in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil.
4. Backfill with soil, firming gently around the plant.

Transplanting:

1. Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil and eliminate air pockets.
2. Space plants 18-24 inches apart to ensure good air circulation.

Care and Maintenance

• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells, but avoid waterlogging.
• Mulching: Apply mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to encourage new blooms.
• Staking: Support the tall stems to prevent them from falling over.
• Winter Care:
  • In colder climates, lift the tubers after the first frost.
  • Store them in a cool, dry, frost-free place over winter.
  • Replant in spring after the last frost.
