What makes the 'Avignon' special is that its flowers transform in shape. As the flower fully opens, the petals curl into a pointed shape, making it resemble a cactus dahlia.

This allows bees to enjoy the flower for a little longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flowers grow up to 20 centimeters wide and are excellent for use as cut flowers in a bouquet.

This means that the tubers can be grown indoors from March. This gives them a head start in growth and the Dahlias will flower earlier.

From then on, the tubers can be planted in the ground without any risk of frost and will flower approximately 60-90 days later. Plant the dahlia tuber with its old flower stem from last year facing upwards, just 2 to 3 centimeters below the ground and keep a distance of half a meter from tuber to tuber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe planting season is until June.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLocation\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dahlia prefers a sunny spot in nutrient-rich, water-permeable, preferably calcareous, sandy soil. \u003cbr\u003eThe flowers of the \u003cem\u003eDahlia\u003c\/em\u003e 'Avignon' grow quite large.

Dahlias are topped when they have reached a certain height, usually when they are in the active growth stage. We recommend allowing at least 2 to 4 pairs of leaves to grow before topping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA leaf node is the place where a leaf is attached to the stem. Look at the top pairs of leaves on the stem. Use a sharp, clean pair of pruning shears and cut the stem just above a leaf node. Make sure to make a clean cut so as not to damage the plant. If there are flower buds below the topped spot, you can also remove them. This helps the plant to put more energy into developing side branches. After topping, the dahlia will begin to develop side branches from the leaf axils, resulting in a more floriferous plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDahlia care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil of the dahlia moist at all times.

Dahlias are typically pinched when they reach a certain height, usually when they are in the active growth phase. We recommend allowing at least 2 to 4 pairs of leaves to grow before pinching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA leaf node is the point where a leaf is attached to the stem. Look for the uppermost leaf pairs on the stem. Use a sharp, clean pruning shear and cut the stem just above a leaf node. Make a clean cut to avoid damaging the plant. If there are flower buds below the pinched area, you can remove them as well. This helps the plant invest more energy into developing side branches. After pinching, the dahlia will start developing side branches from the leaf axils, resulting in a plant with more flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil of the \u003cem\u003eDahlia\u003c\/em\u003e 'Pride One' consistently moist.

Cut the plant back to the ground. Protect the tubers planted in the ground with leaves during the winter against light frost.

The advantage of digging up the tubers is that they can be divided each year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeed the plant several times a year for optimal results.

Therefore, the tubers can be pre-planted indoors starting in March. This gives the plants a head start, allowing them to grow and bloom earlier. The plants can be moved outside after the \"ice saints\" (around May 15), or earlier if the weather is favorable, but beware of night frost—then they should be brought inside at night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eOutside in the Garden\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you choose to wait to plant the dahlia tubers until after the frost, it's best to wait until May 15. After that, the tubers can be safely planted in the ground and will start blooming about 60 to 90 days later. Plant the tuber with its old flower stem from last year facing upward, about 2 to 3 centimeters below the soil, and keep a half-meter distance between each tuber.

Dahlias are pinched when they reach a certain height, usually when they are in the active growth stage. We recommend allowing at least 2 to 4 leaf pairs to grow before pinching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA leaf node is the point where a leaf is attached to the stem. Look for the uppermost leaf pairs on the stem. Use sharp, clean pruning shears and cut the stem just above a leaf node. Make sure to make a clean cut to avoid damaging the plant. If there are flower buds below the pinched area, you can remove them as well. This helps the plant invest more energy in developing side branches. After pinching, the dahlia will start developing side branches from the leaf axils, resulting in a more flower-rich plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCaring for the Dahlia 'Little Swan'\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil of the \u003cem\u003eDahlia\u003c\/em\u003e 'Little Swan'™ always moist.

Dahlias are pinched when they reach a certain height, usually when they are in the active growth stage. We recommend allowing at least 2 to 4 leaf pairs to grow before pinching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA leaf node is the point where a leaf is attached to the stem. Look for the uppermost leaf pairs on the stem. Use sharp, clean pruning shears and cut the stem just above a leaf node. Make sure to make a clean cut to avoid damaging the plant. If there are flower buds below the pinched area, you can remove them as well. This helps the plant invest more energy in developing side branches. After pinching, the dahlia will start developing side branches from the leaf axils, resulting in a more flower-rich plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil of the \u003cem\u003eDahlia\u003c\/em\u003e 'Totally Tangerine' always moist. Too dry soil can cause problems with growth and blooming.\u003cbr\u003eDuring blooming, remove dead flowers for new growth. The dahlia blooms until the first night frost. Cut the plant down to the ground when it's finished blooming. Protect the tubers planted in the ground in winter with leaves against light frost. In case of severe frost, they should be stored in a frost-free, dry location. The advantage of digging them up is that the tuber can be divided each year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeed the plant several times a year for optimal results.

We recommend allowing at least 2 to 4 pairs of leaves to grow before pinching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA leaf node is the point where a leaf is attached to the stem. Look at the upper leaf pairs on the stem. Use sharp, clean pruning shears and cut the stem just above a leaf node. Make sure to cut cleanly to avoid damaging the plant. If there are flower buds below the pinched point, you can also remove them. This helps the plant focus its energy on developing side shoots. \u003cspan\u003eAfter pinching, the dahlia will start to develop side shoots from the leaf axils, resulting in a more floriferous plant.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil of the \u003cem\u003eDahlia\u003c\/em\u003e 'Phyllis Farmer' always moist.

Cut the plant down to the ground after blooming. Protect the tubers planted in the ground in winter with leaves against light frost.

We recommend allowing at least 2 to 4 pairs of leaves to grow before pinching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA leaf node is the point where a leaf is attached to the stem. Look at the upper leaf pairs on the stem. Use sharp, clean pruning shears and cut the stem just above a leaf node. Make sure to cut cleanly to avoid damaging the plant. If there are flower buds below the pinched point, you can also remove them. This helps the plant focus its energy on developing side shoots. After pinching, the dahlia will start to develop side shoots from the leaf axils, resulting in a more floriferous plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare of the Bee Mix Dahlias\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil of the dahlias always moist.

The plants can be moved outdoors after the ice saints (May 15), or earlier if the weather is favorable, but be cautious of night frost and bring them inside if necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePlanting Outdoors in the Garden\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you choose to wait until after the frost to plant the dahlia tubers, the best time to do so is until May 15. From this point onward, the tubers can be safely planted in the ground, and they will bloom approximately 60 to 90 days later. Plant the tuber with last year's old flower stem facing upwards, about 2 to 3 centimeters under the soil, and leave half a meter of space between each tuber. The planting period lasts until June.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLocation\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dahlia prefers a sunny location in nutrient-rich, well-draining, preferably lime-rich sandy soil.\u003cbr\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eDahlia\u003c\/em\u003e 'Larry's Love' grows to 80 centimeters tall and has large flowers. We recommend supporting the plant and removing a few flowers for a vase if they become top-heavy during blooming. For pot planting, choose a pot with a minimum width of 40 centimeters to prevent it from drying out too quickly during the summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePinching Dahlias\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePinching a dahlia is a technique used to encourage growth and make the plant more compact and bushy. Dahlias are pinched when they reach a certain height, typically when they are in the active growth phase. We recommend allowing at least 2 to 4 pairs of leaves to grow before pinching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA leaf node is the point where a leaf is attached to the stem. Look at the upper leaf pairs on the stem. Use sharp, clean pruning shears and cut the stem just above a leaf node. Make sure to cut cleanly to avoid damaging the plant. If there are flower buds below the pinched point, you can also remove them. This helps the plant focus its energy on developing side shoots. After pinching, the dahlia will start to develop side shoots from the leaf axils, resulting in a more floriferous plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare of Dahlia 'Larry's Love'\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil of \u003cem\u003eDahlia\u003c\/em\u003e 'Larry's Love' always moist. Too dry soil can cause problems with growth and blooming.\u003cbr\u003eDuring blooming, remove dead flowers to encourage new blooms. If the plant finishes blooming in the fall, it’s best to let it completely die back to prevent water from getting into the hollow flower stems when they are cut, thus avoiding rotting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to Do with Dahlias in the Fall?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtect the tubers planted in the ground in winter with leaves against light frost.

Do not remove the tubers from the ground too early for propagation. Just before the first frost is the best time. The tubers can be split directly, but this can also be done in the spring.

Protect the tubers that are planted in the open ground from light frost with a layer of leaves in the winter. In severe frost, the tubers must be stored frost-free and in a dry place.

Dahlias are topped when they have reached a certain height, usually when they are in the active growth stage. We recommend allowing at least 2 to 4 pairs of leaves to grow before topping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA leaf node is where a leaf is attached to the stem. Look at the top pairs of leaves on the stem. Use a sharp, clean pair of pruning shears and cut the stem just above a leaf node. Make sure to make a clean cut so as not to damage the plant. If there are flower buds below the topped spot, you can also remove them. This helps the plant to put more energy into developing side branches. After topping, the dahlia will begin to develop side branches from the leaf axils, resulting in a more floriferous plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDahlia care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil of the dahlia moist at all times. Too dry soil can cause problems in growth and flowering.\u003cbr\u003e During flowering, the faded flowers are removed for new flowering.

If there are flower buds below the topped spot, you can also remove them. This helps the plant to put more energy into developing side branches.
