Description

Neat and petite Dahlia 'Pablo' is the one to have if you’re looking for a dahlia that will flower all summer in patio pots or at the front of a border. With impressively large double blooms in a soft sunrise shades of peach and yellow, this compact dahlia from the popular Gallery series pads out pots and small spaces with long-lasting summer colour without getting too big for its boots or scrimping on flower power!

There’s no doubt that this dwarf dahlia is a great one for prettying your patch, whether that’s a fair-sized garden or a balcony. Throwing out multiple blooms at a time on sturdy, long stems, you can also snip a few to pop in a stem vase to enjoy indoors. Try planting Dahlia 'Pablo' with yellow, purple or dark dahlias to create a contrast, or tuck them in among foliage plants to add an exotic pop of colour.

Useful information

    • Dahlia 'Pablo' is half hardy, which means that it should be kept frost free over winter and during spring.

    • For best results, start your dahlia tubers in temporary pots in a
      greenhouse in March or April to grow on to transplant outside later in the season—this will give them a head start.

    • Alternatively, you can plant the Dahlia 'Pablo' tubers directly outside in May.

    • Plant with the stump of last year's stem facing upwards. The tuber should be fully submerged but with the stump just below the soil surface.

    • Plant one tuber per 8-10" pot if growing on during spring. When
      planting outside, space the tubers around 30-50cm apart from each other. Compact varieties don’t need so much space.

    • Water-in thoroughly after planting and continue to water regularly once in full growth, but only when the soil appears to be nearly dry.

Dahlias in 60 seconds

Dahlias like full sun and a free-draining soil, and should be lifted and stored in winter, or at least protected with peat or straw. Dahlia flowers can range from 5 to 25cm in diameter and those magnificent larger-flowering dahlias might appreciate a little extra support with canes!
