A vibrant medley of Fubuki Dahlias—each one a stunner, all bundled together.

Bring a burst of colour to your summer garden with this striking mix.
Fubuki Dahlias are known for their serrated, semi-frilled petals and bold presence. Reaching up to 110 cm tall, they’re a breeze to grow and reward you with a dazzling display year after year.
To plant: nestle the tubers just below the soil surface, keeping the growing tips covered but intact. Firm the soil gently—no rough handling. Taller stems may benefit from staking, and a light spray of fungicide now and then helps keep powdery mildew at bay.
Deadhead spent blooms to keep the colour coming, and once the season wraps up, trim back the foliage to ground level in autumn.


Please note: the photo shown is representative—the actual mix may vary slightly depending on availability.

- The best time to plant Dahlias here in NZ is September or October, but can be planted anytime from mid August through to late December.

- Dahlias love sun ,so choose a nice sunny spot in your garden. Ideally a spot that gets at least 4 hours of full sun a day.

- Dahlias will grow in almost any soil, but prefer well drained loamy soil conditions.

- Prepare the ground a few weeks before planting by digging over the soil thoroughly and adding a little well rotted compost and an application of general fertiliser.

- Before planting the tubers, apply stakes (for larger varieties) staking after planting damages roots and tubers.

- Plant your Dahlia tubers about 5-10cm deep and about 50cm apart with the eye facing upwards. Water well and keep moist being careful not to over-water.
