Elegant Dahlia for Borders, Containers and Cut Flowers
Dahlia Sandra is a refined summer-flowering dahlia producing beautifully formed blooms with softly shaded pink petals and lighter edges. Flowering reliably from July through to the first frost, this variety brings long-lasting interest to garden borders, patio containers and cutting gardens.
Reaching a height of around 100 cm, Dahlia Sandra is well suited to the middle or back of a border, where its upright habit and balanced proportions create a strong visual presence. The flowers sit on strong, straight stems, making them particularly valuable for indoor arrangements.
Perfect for Late Summer Garden Displays
Dahlias are unrivalled for extending colour and structure through late summer and early autumn. Sandra blends effortlessly into a wide range of planting styles, from relaxed cottage gardens to more contemporary schemes, while maintaining a neat and polished appearance.
Excellent Cut Flower Variety
This variety is highly regarded for cutting. Regular harvesting encourages continuous flower production, ensuring a steady supply of fresh blooms throughout the season. Ideal for garden-grown bouquets and floral displays.
Growing Advice
Plant tubers in fertile, free-draining soil once the risk of frost has passed. Choose a sunny, sheltered position for best results. Water regularly during dry periods and provide support if grown in exposed locations. As a tender plant, winter protection is required by lifting and storing tubers or providing adequate insulation.
