Dahlia 'Primrose Diane' is a tall-growing Decorative dahlia, with large, primrose-yellow spiky blooms. It's ideal for growing in a mixed herbaceous border, where its flowers will bring out the colours of other blooms. It's also excellent for cutting and exhibiting.
For best results, grow Dahlia 'Primrose Diane' 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.
