Description
Dahlia 'Fascination' is a summer bulb of a rare species.
This magnificent dahlia bears an abundance of flowers from July to the first frost. These lovely peony-like flowers measure 8 to 10cm (3 to 4in) in diameter. The flowers are a vibrant pink colour with a brown heart and yellow stamens. The flowers make beautiful bouquets, with a vase life of 2 to 6 days. It is also an ornamental plant.
The abundant and deciduous foliage is bronze. The leaves are opposite. It is a medium-sized dahlia that can reach a height of 75 to 85cm (30 to 34in).
It looks wonderful in flower beds and borders, as well as in pots and containers on balconies and patios. It can be combined with other bulbous plants, whether they are perennials or annuals. It can also be grown individually.
This dahlia thrives at the foot of lavateras.
Our advice: to make bouquets, pick the flowers early in the morning when they are fully open.

Planting and care
Dahlia 'Fascination' prefers a sunny spot. Plant after the last frost, from May to June. Place it in ordinary, fairly fertile, sandy soil that is rich in humus and well-drained. Plant the bulbs at a depth of 10cm (4in), spaced 40cm (16in) apart. Provide nitrogen-rich fertiliser until the end of June, then potassium-rich fertiliser from July to October. These fertilisations should be done once a week, and will help to extend the flowering period. After planting, water regularly at the base, preferably in the evening, avoiding wetting the foliage. Watering is imperative during hot periods. Regularly remove faded flowers. After flowering, store the tubers in a dry and well-ventilated place, preferably in sand and protected from rodents. A cellar is an ideal location. Before storing them, leave a few leaves in place so that the tuber can replenish its nutrient reserves. Wait for these leaves to turn yellow. You can replant the tubers in spring.

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.
