Growing Tips for South African Gardens 🌿

Soil: Plant in rich, well-draining soil. If your soil is clay-heavy, mix in sand and compost. Mulch helps retain moisture and protect roots from heat.

Sunlight: Best grown in full sun, though in hotter inland areas, light midday shade reduces stress.

Planting:

  • Time: October – December.

  • Depth: 8 cm deep with tubers pointed down.

  • Spacing: 30–40 cm apart to allow airflow and avoid overcrowding.

Watering: Deeply water every 3–4 days for around 10 minutes. Increase frequency during heatwaves.

Feeding: Apply a quality bulb fertiliser (such as Hadeco Bulb Food) regularly to strengthen plants and enhance flowering.

Care & Maintenance:

  • Stake taller stems for support.

  • Pinch back shoots to encourage bushy growth.

  • Thin side buds to focus energy on central flowers.

  • Remove any plants showing mottled or stunted foliage.

Dormancy & Lifting: From May to August, dahlias rest. In July, cut stems back to 5 cm, lift tubers carefully, and store in a cool, dry place until spring.
