Why we like this plant
Dahlia 'Café au Lait' is chosen for its breathtaking flower size and subtle colouring that works beautifully with both bold and pastel planting schemes. It is a standout plant for gardeners who want dramatic results and armfuls of elegant blooms for the vase.
Planting guide
Plant tubers in spring after the risk of frost has passed, or start them into growth under cover in March or April. Choose a sunny, sheltered position and enrich the soil with organic matter. Stake early to support the large flowers.
Care tips
Water regularly during dry spells and feed every two weeks once flowering begins. Deadhead spent blooms to keep plants flowering freely and tie stems securely to prevent wind damage.
