The Dahlia 'Vectra' is a beautiful dahlia with large flowers of sunshine yellow with bright orange tips. These beautiful plants do best when started off indoors and then planted outdoors in early may. If starting them off indoors isn't possible they can be planted directly into the garden once the threat of frost has passed.
The Dahlias do best when planted in fertile soil that holds onto some moisture, but is still free-draining. The Dahlia will them bloom from midsummer all the way to the first frost in autumn or early winter. The delicate tubers should be dug up and stored indoors over winter. Once fully grown this Dahlia can reach 100cm with large 15cm wide flowers.
