& Summer Flowering Dahlia Smokey 3 Tubers

Introducing Dahlia 'Smokey,' a botanical masterpiece that brings a touch of drama and elegance to your garden. These fully double blooms are a visual feast, adorned with vivid purplish-pink markings against a pristine white background. The extravagant design of heavily flecked and striped petals makes 'Smokey' a stand-alone beauty or an exquisite complement to darker, single-coloured varieties. This versatile dahlia is not only perfect for late-season border filling but also shines in containers, making it an ideal choice for a long-lasting and enchanting vase display. With a towering height of 120cm (48in), 'Smokey' commands attention, adding a touch of sophistication to any landscape. Plant the tubers in a sunny spot with moist, well-drained soil, and watch as they flourish with regular feeding and watering throughout the growing season. To encourage bushier growth and an abundance of flowers, pinch out the growing tips while the plants are still young. As autumn arrives, the first frost signals the time to remove the tubers, trim away old stems, and prepare for winter storage, ensuring a fabulous display in the following spring.
