Description

Dahlia 'Zundert Mystery Fox' is a variety of pompom dahlia. The bright orange flowers with a salmon hue are carried on purple stems, blooming from July to October.

 

This perennial has swollen tuberous roots. Gathered in bundles, these tubers produce upright, hollow and branched stems, bearing compound leaves with rounded leaflets. It develops strong, fleshy stems, 90cm (35 in) tall. They are topped with ligulate flowers in bright orange. The rounded and clustered blooms measure 7cm (3in) in diameter.

Dahlia 'Zundert Mystery Fox' thrives in rich, clayey soil that is deeply worked. It prefers warm and sunny conditions, sheltered from prevailing winds. It does not like poor, sandy soils.

Dahlia 'Zundert Mystery Fox' is perfect in mixed flower beds with other varieties. The flowers are also ideal for making bouquets.

Tips: when planting, consider the dimensions of the dahlia when designing your flower beds.

Planting and care

Plant 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. Add 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 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 in early May once the risk of frost has passed.
