If you always remove the faded flowers, "Jowey Winnie" will shower you with beautiful apricot-colored balls from July to November.
With its apricot shimmer, it is very popular in wedding decorations.
Perfect as a cut flower. And for pots.
And "Jowey Winnie" somehow always works. Look at the photos for possible combinations... not easy to choose, I know ??
Tip: Pinch dahlias as soon as they are 20 to 30 cm high: simply shorten the shoot tip by a third. Then it will form several shoots, more flowers and become bushier.

🐝 Dahlias are often wrongly described as not being insect-friendly. However, as soon as the flowers open - even if they are densely filled - they release their stamens and are accessible to bees and other insects.
Flower happiness guarantee: You should enjoy your dahlias 100%. Sometimes nature does what it wants and that's actually quite nice, but not always in the interest of us gardeners. In rare cases, a tuber doesn't sprout. If that's the case for you, please contact me! We'll find a solution 💚
