Dahlia Decorative ‘Temple of Beauty’ (1 tuber)

If you’re looking to make a bold statement in your garden, look no further than the ‘Temple of Beauty’ Dahlia tuber. This showstopping variety produces flowers that are truly a sight to behold – with blooms reaching up to 20cm/8″ inches in diameter and a deep pink colour with a striking yellow center. This plant is sure to turn heads and draw the eye wherever you choose to plant it.

When planting the ‘Temple of Beauty’ tuber, it is important to choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. The tuber should be planted around 15cm/6″ deep and around 60cm/24″apart from other bulbs. Once planted, it is important to keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged, as this can cause the tubers to rot.

As the plant grows, it will need to be staked to support the weight of the blooms. This can be done using bamboo canes or similar. It is also important to deadhead the blooms regularly, as this will encourage the plant to produce more flowers.

When the frost arrives, it is important to dig up the tubers and store them in a cool, dry place until the next growing season. With the proper care and attention, ‘Temple of Beauty’ will provide a beautiful display of blooms year after year. Its a perfect choice for any gardener looking for a statement piece in their garden.
