Variety from 2020 by Koot A.C. (Netherlands)
Dahlia Caramel Antique is a recent decorative dahlia with soft cream-yellow flowers that have a vintage appearance and often contain a hint of apricot or pink. Some also call it Dahlia Champagne.
The roots of this beauty lie in Mexico. The Mexican Francisco Hernandez was a great fan of dahlias and began writing about them in 1615. This publicity ensured that dahlias were brought from Mexico to Spain. From there, the dahlia was introduced to Europe two hundred years later, in 1804, by botanist Andreas Dahl.
When the risk of (night) frost has passed, dahlia tubers can be planted.
Dig a planting hole where the dahlia tuber fits comfortably 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.
