Dahlia 'Fluerel'
- As dinnerplate dahlias go, 'Fleurel' is akin to the finest Wedgwood crockery, radiating taste, class and effortless style
- Blooming heavily (and reliably) throughout summer and into autumn, 'Fleurel' produces large flowers (20-25cm) comprising dozens of delicate, slightly wavy, ivory white petals
- A definite contender when it comes to the best dahlia for cut flowers and bouquets, 'Fleurel' blooms suit a wide variety of arrangements and tend to last a long time in a vase
- If your dahlia is growing tall and you're worried about it flopping over, then consider staking it with bamboo canes
- Plant in a dedicated dahlia display, in a large pot or as part of a cottage garden planting scheme
