Cute Ball Dahlia in a beautiful soft color combination

Variety from 2007 Koot A.C. (Netherlands)
The Ball dahlia looks very similar to the Pompon but is slightly larger. The Ball dahlia is available in many different varieties and colors and grows about 80 to 100 cm tall. The diameter of the flower is 8 to 12 cm.
The Dahlia is a tuberous crop of Mexican origin that was brought from America to Europe around 1800. Here, the leaf tuber was named after the Swedish botanist Andreas Dahl.
They provide you with flowers to enjoy all summer long
When the risk of (night) frost has passed, dahlia tubers can be planted.
Dig a planting hole that is spacious enough for the dahlia tuber and cover it with a few centimeters of soil. Plant the tuber with the piece of old stem facing up.
Dahlias love nutrient-rich soil. You can enrich poor garden soil by mixing compost into the planting hole. They are true sun lovers, so plant them in a sunny spot.
Do you want to enjoy a sea of endless flowers for as long as possible? Then cut away the faded dahlia flowers. This ensures that the dahlia keeps producing new flowers.
Do you have no garden, but a balcony or terrace? Then you too can enjoy lush flowers. Dahlias do perfectly in pots and planters.
Did you know that dahlia is also a Greek girl's name? The name literally means 'flower'. Coincidence does not exist!
