Description

The Dahlia 'Marble Ball' is a charming, compact plant that produces stunning purple blooms atop green foliage, perfect for adding vibrant color to gardens. Growing to a height of 50-70 cm, it has a neat, upright habit and features flowers with a 5-10 cm spread. Ideal for borders, large containers, cut flower gardens, and gravel or coastal gardens, this semi-hardy dahlia thrives in partial shade to full sun. With its long flowering period from July to September, it is a reliable and eye-catching choice for creating beautiful, low-maintenance displays. Plant 3 tubers per square meter at a depth of 3-5 cm, and enjoy its versatility in pots or cottage-style gardens. While easy to grow, the Dahlia 'Marble Ball' is not resistant to deer, mice, or rabbits, so some protection may be required in exposed areas.

    FAQ - About Allium

    Allium bulbs are best planted in autumn, between September and November, before the first frost sets in. This gives the bulbs enough time to form roots before winter begins.

    As a rule of thumb, plant the bulbs at a depth of about two to three times their own height. Also allow sufficient spacing between the bulbs, usually 10 to 20 cm, depending on the size of the variety.

    Yes, Alliums grow best in a sunny location. They like well-draining soil and thrive less well in shady, damp conditions.

    Yes, Alliums are hardy, perennial bulbs. Provided they are planted in the right spot and the bulbs don't rot from excess moisture, they will return year after year and may even naturalize and spread on their own.
