Downham Royal

Downham Royal

My Dearest Downham Royal,

You are a regal beauty, your magenta blooms rich and bold, as captivating as a royal crown. Standing tall at 100 cm, you command attention with your vibrant color and flawless ball shape, your elegance impossible to ignore.

As a cutflower, you are the perfect companion, bringing your royal charm indoors, where your beauty can be admired up close. Downham Royal, you are the heart of any garden, a bloom that fills every space with warmth and majesty.

  • When, pray tell, should one plant dahlias?

    Ah, my dearest readers, dahlias are rather particular creatures. They demand a sun-drenched stage and soil that drains as elegantly as champagne from a crystal flute. Their favourite debut season? Spring, of course, in April, May, and June, when the world is positively begging for glamour.

    Those wishing to give their blooms a head start may begin in early April. Cosset them indoors like the little divas they are, and by the time the weather warms, they’ll be ready to sashay outdoors, blossoms poised for admiration.
