Description

Named after one of the most beautiful national parks in Holland, the Dahlia 'Kennemerland' has to do a lot to live up to its namesake which offers lagoons, dunes and woods as attractions to visitors. This one metre plant, when it’s covered in bright and cheerful cactus-style flowers, certainly does its best. And it certainly is going to attract a lot of attention with its bursts of colour, either in borders or in vases. The long petals have the typical cactus dahlia tubular spikes as a background to the tight centre ball of petals. The cheery yellow Dahlia 'Kennemerland' will stand out wonderfully against the green foliage of this dahlia.

The unique spiky petals of Dahlia 'Kennemerland' create a textured, almost architectural effect that brings drama and dimension to any planting scheme.

Whether you're designing a cottage garden, a contemporary border, or simply looking to add a splash of yellow to your landscape, this variety won’t disappoint.

Useful information

- Dahlia 'Kennemerland' is half hardy, which means that it should be kept frost free over winter and during spring.
- For best results, start your dahlia tubers in temporary pots in a
  greenhouse in March or April to grow on to transplant outside later in the season—this will give them a head start.
- Alternatively, you can plant the Dahlia 'Kennemerland' tubers directly outside in May.
- Plant with the stump of last year's stem facing upwards. The tuber should be fully submerged but with the stump just below the soil surface.
- Plant one tuber per 8-10" pot if growing on during spring. When
  planting outside, space the tubers around 30-50cm apart from each other. Compact varieties don’t need so much space.
- Water-in thoroughly after planting and continue to water regularly once in full growth, but only when the soil appears to be nearly dry.
