Description
The Dahlia 'Park Record' is a variety of dwarf cactus dahlia. The flowers with tapering petals and lacerated tips are orange, blooming from July to October.
This perennial has swollen tuberous roots. Gathered in bundles, these tubers produce dark, upright, hollow and branched stems, carrying compound leaves with rounded odd-pinnate leaflets. Solid, fleshy stems 50cm (20in) tall are topped with ligulate flowers, tapering and lacerated at the tips, measuring 12cm (5in) in diameter.
The Dahlia 'Park Record' thrives in rich, clayey but well-drained soil, deeply worked in warm and sunny conditions, sheltered from prevailing winds. It languishes in poor, sandy soils.
The Dahlia 'Park Record' is used in mixed flower beds with other varieties or for making bouquets.
Tips: When planting, take into account the dimensions for the composition of your flower beds.

Planting and care
The Dahlia 'Park Record' should be planted from mid-April to early May at a depth of 10 to 15cm (4 to 6in) and spaced 60cm (24in) apart. Always provide support stakes and loosely tie the young stems. Apply slow-release compost or organic fertiliser during planting and liquid fertiliser once a month during the growing season—water without wetting the foliage. There is no need to prune this variety. Treat against aphids and slugs. Dig up the tubers before the frost, cutting the stems to 15cm (6in) from the stump. Store them in a cool, well-ventilated, and dark place that is not too humid. Transplant them in early May when the risk of frost has passed.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
