for more blooms

Dahlia flowers can produce hundreds of flower blooms in one summer.

They need a lot of nutrients in order to keep up with this bloom demand!

Dahlias will bloom well into fall in many climates.

This means you should continue to fertilize to promote bloom growth.

Not all fertilizers should be applied frequently, however. Visit the full article to learn when to fertilize!
