Dahlia Edinburgh is a striking variety with wine-red to purple flowers accented by white tips, creating a bold contrast that will elevate any garden display. These eye-catching blooms, perfect for cut flowers, will bloom all summer long, providing vibrant color to your outdoor spaces. With a height of 120 cm (48 inches) and a spread of 60 cm (24 inches), Dahlia Edinburgh is ideal for borders, bedding, or as a standout cut flower.

Plant Dahlia Edinburgh in well-cultivated, nutrient-rich garden soil with ample organic material. These dahlias thrive in sunny locations, away from strong winds, ensuring the best growth and flower production. Planting should start in March, with bulbs spaced about 60 cm (24 inches) apart to give them plenty of room to grow.

For earlier flowering, start the bulbs indoors in boxes during April using a light soil mix combined with compost. Keep the bulbs slightly moist, cool, and frost-free until they sprout. After the risk of frost has passed, transplant the sprouted tubers outdoors. When used as a cut flower, wait until the blooms are fully developed to ensure the longest vase life.

Dahlia Edinburgh is perfect for adding a splash of color to garden beds, borders, or containers on your patio or balcony. With their stunning red and white blooms, they’re also a great addition to any floral arrangement.
