It grows to a height of approximately 60 to 90 cm and is characterized by its round flowers. The flowers bloom mainly from summer to autumn, and the mixture of various colors evokes a marble pattern. Propagation Method: Dahlias are primarily propagated by dividing the bulbs. In the spring, dig up the bulbs, cut off the buds, and divide them into several pieces to plant. While propagation by seeds is also possible, bulb division is the more common method. Cultivation Method: It is best to grow them in a sunny location, and they prefer well-drained soil.

Aphids can be washed off with soapy water or professional insecticides can be used, while snails and slugs can be prevented through regular leaf care and soil cleaning. Additionally, you must maintain a well-drained environment to prevent bulb rot. If necessary, use fungicides to prevent fungal diseases.
