We trialled several apricot ‘Waterlily’ types in the garden last summer and this one had almost twice as many flowers as the rest and for longer. Pretty, ethereal and delicate-looking with a good vase life.

Care Tips

Support with a stout stick, tie in every couple of weeks. In the south you can mulch deeply and overwinter them in the ground, alternatively, lift and overwinter your dahlias frost free undercover.
