Description

The Dahlia 'Tsuki Yori no Shisha' is a variety of cactus dahlia. The flowers with tapered petals and lacerated tips are ivory white with a cream center, and they bloom from July to October.

This perennial has swollen, tuberous roots. Gathered in bundles, these tubers produce upright, hollow and branching stems, bearing compound, odd-pinnate leaves with rounded leaflets. Solid, fleshy stems 90 cm (35in) tall are topped with ligulate flowers in ivory white, tapered and lacerated at the ends, measuring 16 cm (6in) in diameter.

The Dahlia 'Tsuki Yori no Shisha' thrives in rich, clayey, but well-drained soil, worked deeply, in a warm and sunny location, sheltered from prevailing winds. It languishes in poor, sandy soils.

The Dahlia 'Tsuki Yori no Shisha' is used in mixed flower beds with other varieties or for making bouquets.

Tips: When planting, take the dimensions into account for the composition of your flower beds.

Planting and care

The Dahlia 'Tsuki Yori no Shisha' is planted from mid-April to early May at a depth of 10 to 15cm (4 to 6in) and with a spacing of 60cm (24in). 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 remove buds on this variety. Treat against aphids and slugs. Dig up the tubers before frost, cutting the stems to 15cm (6in) from the stump. Store them in a cool, well-ventilated, dark place that is not too damp. Transplant in early May when frost is no longer a concern.
