Description
Cactus Dahlia 'Park Idylle' commands attention with its dramatic spiky blooms, that radiate like warm sunbursts across the garden. Each flower opens in vibrant orange-red, a glorious beauty.
With strong compact stems growing to a height of 60 cm, cactus dahlia for bedding 'Park Idylle' makes it perfect for a bold focal point in borders and pots. From July until October, dahlias famously bloom with vigour, thriving in rich soil and full sun.
de Jager's Cactus for Bedding Dahlia 'Park Idylle' top size, top quailty tubers are supplied polythene bags, in which they may be safely kept until planting time, stored in a cool place.
Care Guide
To grow Dahlias, select a sunny spot with well-drained soil, and dig a 30cm deep hole. Plant the tuber 10cm below the soil surface, spacing multiple tubers 45cm apart, or 90cm for taller varieties. Water consistently, maintaining moist but not saturated soil and protect new shoots from slug damage with eco-friendly methods. Feed plants during the blooming period with liquid plant food. Provide support for stems which will reach 60-90cm tall depending on variety. Enjoy spectacular blooms from late summer until first frosts. Cut or deadhead the flowers regularly for a continually flourishing display. Once blooming has finished, cut back foliage before lifting, drying and storing the tubers in peat-free substitute, in a frost-free place until the following spring.

Gomera
L4002
Glitzy, dark fuchsia-pink petals and a strong perfume make Oriental Lily ‘Gomera’ a wonderful choice, both in garden, and for cutting. Rippled edges, dark freckles and heavenly scent.
The large blooms of oriental lilium 'Gomera' bring plenty of glamour to borders and beds when they flower in late summer, atop long, straight stems. A spidery cluster of green stamens glows above the almost-neon, rippling pink petals, holding velvet-powdered anthers. If growing as a cut flower, these can be removed gently to avoid any staining.
