Dahlia 'Wishes n Dreams' is a dwarf bedding dahlia, with bronze foliage and single flowers with a red centre, fading to soft pink towards the edge. Grow it at the front of a mixed herbaceous border, or in pots of the patio.

For best results, grow Dahlia 'Wishes n Dreams' in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. Deadhead regularly and feed with a potash-rich fertiliser to prolong flowering. Lift tubers after the first frosts and store them in a cool, dry situation until March. Then pot them up and keep them in a temperate greenhouse before planting out in late May.
