Dinner Plate Dahlia 'Lilac Time'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Lilac Time is thought of as tender, so remember to ensure that temperatures are mild before moving outdoors.

Aim to sow 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 11.7 inches (30.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 20°C / 68°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Lilac Time about 60 days before your last frost date.

As Lilac Time is tender, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
