Difficulty Level	Easy

To promote a compact, bushy growing habit, with more flowers, pinch back the new growth when your dahlia is about a foot high
If your goal is to produce massive sized flowers, remove all of the side buds at the end of each branch throughout the growing season
If you want your Dahlia to provide a continuous, extended flower show, you will need to remove the spent buds promptly

Plant dahlia tubers in spring after all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed
Prepare the garden bed by using a garden fork or tiller to loosen the soil to a depth of 12 to 15 inches, then mix in a 2- to 4-inch layer of compost
Dig a hole about three times as deep as the diameter of the tuber, usually between 3 and 8 inches
Set the tuber horizontally in the hole with the buds facing up, cover it with soil, and press firmly
Space tubers 1 to 3 feet apart, depending on the variety, and water thoroughly
Stake tall varieties at planting time, being careful not to damage tubers when installing stakes

Sunlight	Dahlia plants grow and bloom best in full sun.
Watering	Water established Dahlias thoroughly and deeply once a week. Water more frequently if it s very hot.
Soil	Dahlias tolerate most soil types, but prefer a sandy, well drained, slightly acidic soil with a pH of 6.2- 6.5. If your soil is heavy or clay, adding sand and peat moss will help to lighten it.
Temperature	Maintain a temperature in the growing medium of 70Â°-85Â°F until germination which takes from 7-21 days.
Fertilizer	Fertilizer (17 : 17 :17 ) application [ 1 g per litre of water ] has to be stared ten days after transplanting ( 30 days after sowing in case of direct sown crops). This can be repeated once in ten days. Spray 1.5 g of dittany M-45 during rainy season once in 15 days.

Ornamental Use:

Some specimens may provide an abundance of cut flowers for the home, while others give you the opportunity to make a bold statement in your landscape by pruning, dis-budding and ultimately forcing the plant to create a few single, gigantic blooms
Novice Dahlia growers may want to start by selecting a few plants of varying colours, sizes and types
Most Dahlia gardeners will be happy to share their thoughts and experiences with you regarding their successes, failures and favourites
They may even be willing to share a few tubers with you
Once you ve grown your first crop of these beauties, you will have a much better idea of which types of Dahlias to grow in subsequent years

Medicinal Use:

The common garden variety dahlia was once an important root crop and medicinal plant among the pre-Columbian Indians of central Mexico
Its roots were valued both for the nutritious inulin stored inside them and for the antibiotic compounds concentrated in the skin of the tubers

Culinary Use:

Dahlia yams were once a staple food as important as the avocados, tomatoes and sweetcorn that they were eaten alongside
favourite way to eat them is cooked, much like a potato, in soups, stews & rosti
