Dahlia 'Citron de Cap' bears huge, light yellow, lacy-looking flowers over a long period. It's well suited to growing in a mixed, herbaceous border, where its tall blooms will complement a range of other flower colours. It makes an excellent cut flower.
For best results, grow Dahlia 'Citron de Cap' in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. Stake plants early on to protect blooms. Deadhead regularly and feed with a potash-rich fertiliser to prolong flowering. Lift tubers after the first frosts and store them in a cool, dry situation until March. Then pot them up and keep them in a temperate greenhouse before planting out in late May.
