Dahlia Cactus ‘Hayley Jane’ (1 tuber)

A spectacular and bold tuberous perennial, Dahlia Cactus ‘Hayley Jane’ will brighten up your day with its stunning, showy, spiky blooms of white with vivid hot pink tips. They will flower between July and September at a height of around 100cm/40″ above contrasting mid-green foliage.

These incredible two-tone flowers are a real eye-catcher and will make a fantastic focal point in any garden border or bed, excelling as the core of a breathtaking cut flower bouquet.

When planting in the garden look for a position of full sun into soil that is moist but well-drained with a good supply of humus. Digging the soil over before planting is recommended.

For early flowering, tubers may be started off in boxes from March onwards, using a light soil mixed with peat and kept slightly moist. Keep boxes cool and free of frost and plant sprouted tubers when the danger of frost has passed. Keep plants well watered during growth and remove faded flowers.
