When to Plant in the UAE (Field Planting)

In the UAE, Dahlia Giant Mix seeds should be started indoors in September and transplanted outdoors in late October to November, once the temperatures begin to cool to the mid-20s°C or below. Avoid planting during hot months, as dahlias do not tolerate high heat and humidity well.

Tips for Planting

• Start seeds indoors in seed trays with light, well-draining soil

• Transplant outdoors when seedlings are 10–15 cm tall and weather is cooler

• Choose a site with full sun and rich, well-drained soil

• Space plants 30–45 cm apart to allow air circulation

• Water regularly but do not overwater—dahlias dislike soggy roots

• Apply mulch to retain moisture and keep roots cool

• Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming

• Blooms usually appear 90–100 days after sowing
