Planted in full sun, very vigorous and well-flowered, great colour, I really love it. Be careful of slugs at the start of the growth, we had to cover it with a cloche in the evening to protect it for a week otherwise everything would disappear. After that, it grows quickly and tall.

Description

The Dahlia 'Burlesca' is a variety of highly floriferous pompom dahlia that blooms from July to October.

This perennial has tuberculate roots, swollen. Gathered in bundles, these tubers produce upright, hollow and ramified stems, bearing compound leaves with rounded leaflets. Solid, fleshy 60 to 90cm (24 to 35in) tall flower stalks are topped with spherical inflorescences that give a more or less alveolate appearance, 4 cm (2in) in diameter, in pink.

The Dahlia 'Burlesca' thrives in rich, clayey but healthy soil, deeply worked in a warm and sunny location, sheltered from prevailing winds. It languishes in poor, sandy soils.

The Dahlia 'Burlesca' 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 'Burlesca' 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 stakes and tie the young stems loosely. Add slow-release compost or organic fertilizer during planting, and liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season. Water without wetting the foliage. There is no need to prune the buds on 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, dark place, not too humid. Transplant in early May when there is no longer a risk of frost.
