Flowering
With its huge, tousled flowers measuring 20cm across, each flower a unique combination of cream streaked with magenta pink, Dahlia ‘Briston Stripe’ is a sensational sight in summer. It keeps on blooming well into autumn and up to the first frosts, adding height and colour to the garden. Held on tall stems, the dinnerplate-sized flowers with their curly petals look stunning in the border and in flower arrangements.
How To Grow
How to Grow Dahlias:
Plant dahlias in a sunny spot with well-drained, fertile soil enriched with compost or organic matter. Space plants 30-60cm apart depending on their final size, ensuring good air circulation. Tubers should be planted 10-15cm deep with the crown upwards, while plug plants and potted dahlias can be planted at the same depth as in their pots. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Pinch out the growing tips when plants are 30cm tall to encourage bushier growth and more flowers. Stake taller varieties early to prevent wind damage. Regular deadheading promotes continuous blooms, and feeding every 2-3 weeks with a high-potash fertiliser enhances flowering. Lift tubers after the first frost, dry them, and store in a cool, frost-free place for winter, or mulch deeply in mild climates to overwinter in the ground.
