Five Pom-Pom Dahlias
CAM22
From Garden to Vase: Why Pom-Pom Dahlias Steal the Show …(especially at less than half price).
You already know how some flowers naturally draw the eye, and pom-pom dahlias are surely the best at catching a gardeners attention. Their perfectly round blooms, available in bold and soft shades alike, bring a touch of elegance to your garden. From midsummer until the first frost, when other flowers begin to fade, these reliable performers keep beds and borders bursting with colour. You will agree when you look at these five stunning varieties in this superb offer.
Pompon dahlias are highly sought-after for their inexhaustible production of neat, spherical blooms.
Start the tubers off in pots of compost in a greenhouse, or sheltered area in April and plant out after the danger of frost has passed. The plants will reward you with armfuls of delightful blooms until late autumn.
You will receive:
Dark Spirit
Deep crimson petals form a flawless sphere, creating a bold, dramatic presence in garden borders. Velvety blooms catch the light beautifully, adding richness to late-season displays. A perfect choice for striking floral arrangements.
Golden Sceptre
Warm golden-yellow flowers glow against deep green foliage, bringing sunshine to beds and containers. Compact, perfectly shaped blooms provide lasting colour well into autumn. A cheerful addition to any planting scheme, enhancing vibrant summer displays.
Little Robert
Rosy-pink petals swirl into neat, rounded blooms, offering a delicate yet eye-catching touch to your garden. Small but prolific, this variety delivers an endless supply of charming flowers for both garden and vase.
Nescio
Fiery bright-red blooms burst onto the scene, standing out with their rich, bold hue. Compact and uniform, these flowers create striking contrast against darker foliage, making a lively statement throughout the flowering season.
Snowflake
Pristine white, tightly packed petals create elegant, ball-shaped blooms, adding a fresh, crisp accent to summer borders. Ideal for softening bold colour schemes or enhancing moonlit gardens with a luminous, ethereal quality.
Beyond their striking appearance, pom-pom dahlias are hardy and reliable. Covered in flowers, the strong stems keep each variety standing tall through summer breezes and autumn showers, making these ideal for your fresh arrangements. A few cut stems brightens any room in your house, holding their form and colour for days. Simple to grow and rewarding to nurture, these dahlias bring lasting beauty indoors and out.
Getting the best results starts with high-quality de Jager tubers. Healthy, well-stored tubers lead to vigorous plants and a season full of blooms, while inferior ones often struggle. Planted in well-drained soil and given plenty of sunshine, these dahlias thrive with minimal effort. Regular deadheading and occasional feeding encourage even more flowers, keeping the display going well into autumn.
There is no reason for you to settle for the ordinary, when your garden will be filled with colour, texture, and charm. Pom-pom dahlias from de Jager whether filling pots, borders, or vases, these remarkable flowers never disappoint.
PS As these top-quality tubers are scarce this year, there is a limited number.
