A wonderful semi-cactus variety, Dahlia 'Berger's Record' has curved, deep red petals with pointed tips that create a dramatic explosion on colour in the summer garden. Growing on upright, dark green stems with complementary foliage, it is a wonderful addition beds and borders.
We recommend planting dahlia tubers, such as 'Berger's Record', between March and June into fertile, well drained soil 10cm deep and 50cm apart. Position in a sunny location for maximum flowering and impact. After planting, water in well and monitor during the summer months. Aim for one good soak once a week to the base of the plant.
Some tall and large flowerhead dahlia varieties may need staking for support during the flowering season. Use an all-purpose general plant feed for bigger and brighter blooms. Deadhead regularly to encourage more flowers through till first frosts.
