Product Information

Full details

The Vitax Organic Dahlia Feed (0.9Kg) is for gardeners seeking to cultivate vibrant, abundant dahlias. Its primary benefit is promoting strong growth and striking flower colours. A caveat is that dahlias are heavy feeders, requiring consistent application for best results. This nutrient-rich, organic fertiliser blend provides essential nitrogen, phosphate, potash, magnesium, and trace elements, supporting all dahlia varieties in pots, tubs, or garden beds for lush foliage, strong roots, and long-lasting blooms.

FAQs

When is the best time to apply Vitax Organic Dahlia Feed?

The best time to apply is from spring, as growth begins, through to late summer when dahlias are actively flowering. It can be applied at planting or around established plants.

How much feed should I use per plant?

For garden beds or tubs, mix 1-2 handfuls (approx. 75-150g) per square metre. For individual pots, use 1-2 level spoonfuls, gently worked into the top layer of compost.

Can I use this feed on other types of flowers?

While formulated specifically for dahlias, the balanced nutrient profile may benefit other flowering plants. However, for optimal results, it's best used on dahlias as intended.

Is this product safe for children and pets?

This is an organic fertiliser. While generally safe when used as directed, it is always advisable to keep fertilisers out of reach of children and pets and to wash hands after handling.

How often should I reapply the feed?

For continuous blooming and growth, reapply every 4-6 weeks throughout the growing season, especially during peak flowering.

What if I accidentally apply too much?

If over-application is suspected, water the area thoroughly to help dilute the fertiliser. Monitor the plants for signs of stress.

Troubleshooting

Dahlias are not flowering well or have dull colours.

Ensure the feed is being applied consistently during the growing season as dahlias are heavy feeders. Check that plants are receiving adequate sunlight and water.

Yellowing leaves on dahlia plants.

This can indicate a need for more nutrients. Ensure you are applying the recommended amount of feed. Check watering levels, as both over and under-watering can cause yellowing.

Poor growth after application.

Verify that the correct application rate has been used. Over-application can sometimes inhibit growth. Ensure the soil is well-drained.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This product is a fertiliser and does not require any technical setup. It is ready to be applied directly to the soil or compost. Ensure the product is stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Compatibility: Vitax Organic Dahlia Feed is specifically formulated for all varieties of dahlias. It can be used in conjunction with other organic soil amendments. Always follow the recommended application rates to avoid over-fertilisation.

Care: Apply the feed during the growing season, typically from spring through to late summer. For best results, water plants thoroughly after application to help the nutrients disperse into the soil. Avoid applying to waterlogged soil. This feed is designed to support flowering, so application timing is key to maximising bloom potential.
