Dahlia Mango Madness - Thompson & Morgan

Plant them outdoors only after the risk of frost has passed in your local area, usually late spring.

In most regions, no. They are not frost-hardy and should be lifted and stored in a frost-free area.

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during dry spells in mid-summer.

Yes, their open, frothy nature makes them accessible and attractive to bees and butterflies.

Cut stems early in the morning when the plant is fully hydrated, and place them immediately into clean, cool water.

The blooms are quite large and heavy; install plant stakes or support rings early in the season to hold the stems upright.

Ensure the plant is receiving at least 6-8 hours of direct sun and verify you are regularly removing dead or faded blooms to encourage new growth.

Ensure tubers are completely dry and free of soil before storage, and store them in a well-ventilated container with peat moss or vermiculite to absorb excess moisture.
