Description

Tree Dahlia – Dahlia imperialis

This plant will only be harvested and dispatched after it has finished flowering for the year. They bloom much later than regular Dahlias, around June.    So, if you read this and there are no stocking figures, they are out of season.

Tree Dahlias grow tall and are great to plant at the back of your garden.  They don’t require much ground space since they rise above most other plants and flower high on their stalks. Your first experience of seeing Tree Dahlias might be this spectacular display 3 meters in the air, hidden behind other plants. The pink/purple is the most common tree dahlia variety, but there are a few different ones.  Like this shorter growing, double white one.

Winter and frosts do affect these beauties, but by the time that occurs, they have reached the end of their season anyway. The stalks will die off; you can cut them down and then wait for fresh, new growth to emerge next time.  If you have a spot in the back of your garden where other plants or a fence can help support the tall growth, sheltered from wind and frost, then it will all the better.

The roots are giant, carrot-like structures, making them hard to dig up and move.  Sections of the stem is an easier way to propagate them.   Once your plants are well established, you can easily chop your old trunks and replant them.
