    Dahlias are the plant that keeps on giving. From summer to the first autumn frosts these prolific flowerers will light up your garden with their beautiful displays. In fact, in the right conditions, a dahlia is capable of producing 100 blooms in a season.

    Also, they come in a wide variety of shapes, so there’s bound to be one to add to your garden for borders filled with blooms.

    Firstly, let’s have a look at the types:

    Single flowered – a simple display of 8-10 petals

    Ball – spherical in shape with an occasional flattened top, they are densely packed with tubular petals too.

    Anemone – flowered: a true double flower – each has one or more rings of flattened ray petals that surrounds a more tubular grouping of petals.

    Collarette – these are a single flower variety with 8-10 broad petals on the outside topped by a crown of smaller petals

    Waterlily – a fully double flower with larger petals. It’s incurved look, makes the flower seem flatter.

    Decorative – with no visible centre this fully double variety has broad flat petals that can curve and twist.

    Pompon – a smaller version of the ball, that is slightly more spherical in shape – these flowers tend to grow no more than 5cm in diameter.

    Cactus – a fully double flowered variety with narrow pointed petals that can be straight or curve outwards

    Semi-cactus – similar to the cactus, they have a broader petals that curve towards their tips

    Peony flowered – the central disc is surrounded by large semi-double flowers that appear irregularly arranged.

    Dahlias like to be in sunny spot, so South or West-facing spots are ideal. They also thrive in free-draining lighter soils and in this environment they can survive the winter. They can be grown in heavy soils, however, the tubers will need lifting towards the end of autumn. Otherwise, the ground gets soggier and colder so they will perish.

    They are tender plants, so they’ll appreciate it if you have a greenhouse to get the tubers started. If you are planting from seed, start them in a propagator in early to mid-spring.

    Add organic matter to the soil before you plant – ideally home-made compost or some well-rotted manure. 1 to 2 buckets per square metre is a good rule of thumb. In addition, you can add some general purpose fertiliser like Miracle-Gro® All Purpose Liquid Plant Food.

    Plant your tubers about 60cm apart and 10-15cm deep.

    Add a mulch layer over the top to help preserve and retain moisture. Water early morning as new shoots are vulnerable to slugs. So, you can also use some of my tried and tested slug deterrents.

    For varieties with larger flower heads, you can use a cane or stake for support. Water them in dry or hot weather, directing any water to the base of the plant. In cooler conditions, give the roots a soak once a week.

    Apply a high potash feed every fortnight once you start to see flower buds. Deadhead these plants regularly to ensure you benefit from a continual display from these stunning flowers.

    Once the seasons begin to change, you’ll see that the frost will kill off the foliage and the flowers will deteriorate due to increased winds. At this point you have two options:

    Either dig up, trim and store the tubers for next year…or leave them – and add an additional layer of mulch to protect the ground from frost. The latter option only works if you live a milder part of the UK and the soil has good drainage

    Christmas dinner is perhaps one of the most looked-forward to meals of the year. It’s not just the food that makes this meal special, but the fun atmosphere of the day with loved ones. When eating your dinner, add something special to the display by creating a festive centrepiece for your Christmas table.

    Deciding what will serve as the base or container for your centrepiece is just as important as what’s going in it. Choose from a shallow bowl if you want part of your feature to incorporate floating flowers in water. A glass or patterned vase is great for flower bouquets or dried flower arrangements.

    However, it’s important to consider where it will be positioned in relation to your seating plan. The last thing you want is for it to obscure views of your loved ones.

    Instead of using a classic container, utilise a piece of cut wood or driftwood as the base to dress with foliage and materials.

    Take a woodland walk and gather twigs, pinecones, leaves and foliage. Although, it’s best to leave berries on plants for sustenance for birds through winter.

    Gathering these resources will help to bulk up the display. You could get old jars and surround them with twigs, tying them into place with string. Then, fill the jars with flowers and foliage to add some height and an extra pop of colour.

    Using dried fruit is a festive addition, that adds colour and also fragrance too. The scent of dried oranges is reminiscent of Christmas times, and when paired with cinnamon creates a completely festive aroma.

    Dried flower arrangements are continuing to increase in popularity, and you can create your own using flowers cut straight from your garden. You don’t need any special equipment or tools to do it either.

    Simply cut the flowers that you want to dry, ensuring they have good quality stems intact, then tie them in bundles using twine or an elastic band. Hang them upside down in a spot with good air circulation and then after 1-2 weeks, the flowers will be dried and ready for your flower display.

    When making the arrangement, stagger the flowers of different heights and add in a small amount of foliage to start with so it doesn’t dominate the display. The foliage will also help to support the flowers at the same time.

    Add light and some magical sparkle by adding candles to the mix. Of course, you need to be careful that they’re positioned where they are not at risk of setting any of the other materials alight.

    There are many types of candles to choose from. Pick a festive fragrance such as gingerbread, cinnamon or pine to add another dimension to your centrepiece. You can get Christmas shaped candles such as trees, reindeers, and Christmas cottages too.

    If you want to opt for a simple design, straight dinner candles add height and can be found in white, green, and red for classic Christmas colours.

    Just like decorating your home and Christmas tree, there are many styles to choose from. Whether you want a minimalist, Scandinavian style décor or would rather a maximalist Kitsch design.

    For a simple and subtle look, use white and grey placemats, surrounding your effortless centrepiece made up from a white tray or plate, with white candles and cuttings of eucalyptus.

    Depending on your Christmas décor choices, your Christmas table centrepiece needs to match your theme. Opt for a minimalist tablescape with candles and minimal foliage or put on a show with all the natural resources that your garden and a woodland walk have to offer. I’d love to see pictures of your Christmas table, so send me picture over Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook.

    Soil is generally classified as alkaline or “sweet” if it has a high pH of more than 7.  The soil is classed as acid if it has a low pH of less than 7.

    Soil is usually alkaline if the underlying bedrock is chalk or limestone-based. This means that the soil will often be very free-draining and lower in nutrients than more neutral pH soils.

    If lumps of chalk appear when digging the soil that’s often a strong indicator that the soil is alkaline. But to be sure, buy a soil-testing pH kit from your local Garden Centre. The pH of your soil can make a big difference to the plants that will grow well in it.

    A main reason why plants that grow well in acid or neutral soils don’t do well in alkaline ones is because their roots can’t absorb certain nutrients important to their growth and health. Such as iron. It’s important to choose the right plants for this very specific soil type of alkaline soil.

    Very alkaline or chalky soils often dry out quickly.  Check the soil depth too, as these types of soil can be shallower with more chalk or rocks than soil!

    If you’d like to plant a tree, then look for ones that aren’t fussy about soil depth, water availability or nutrients.

    Crab apple, hawthorn and spindle trees will all grow well in these conditions. And they won’t dominate the garden or cause excess shade as they mature.

    The Judas tree (Cercis siliquastrum) will also grow extremely well in these conditions. They have the bonus of producing beautiful purple-pink flowers in spring.  You’ll see lots of these trees growing wild in the French countryside. The sight of them all in bloom is stunning.

    How about a weeping form of the redbud?  It’s ideal for smaller gardens and, not growing so tall, there won’t be so many roots needed to support the tree’s stem which should help it establish well in a chalky soil garden.  Come spring the bare branches become laden with stunning lilac-pink flowers and, as they fade, their place is taken by heart-shaped vibrant green, leaves which in turn change to bright, buttery shades of yellow before falling in the autumn months.  The other good news is that it doesn’t require pruning!

    Fortunately, many shrubs thrive in alkaline soil.  Berberis, cotinus, lavender and potentilla are all very happy growing in these soil conditions.  If year-round presence is required, there are several evergreen plants of varying heights too. Such as euonymus and arbutus, the strawberry tree, so called because of the colour and shape of its fruit. These fruits appear during the autumn months.  If you’re looking for an evergreen shrub that also flowers, then Californian lilac (Ceanothus) is a great choice.

    Ceanothus ‘Autumnal Blue’ (Californian lilac)

    This handsome, evergreen shrub has fluffy clusters of sky-blue flowers and small, glossy, bright green leaves. It has a strong, upright habit and is ideal for training on a sunny wall. Or even for the back of a south or west-facing shrub border. It is one of the hardier varieties of Californian lilac. However, it will need protection from strong wind so make sure to plant in a sheltered position in the garden.

    Achillea, campanula, phlox and salvias will all grow well in alkaline soil.

    Achillea are long-lasting, easy to grow and available in a wide range of both bright and pastel colours. This makes them a great choice for this soil type.

    For shadier areas, look for shade-loving varieties of campanula or geranium. A lovely, easy-to-grow plant that delights with handsome, green leaves covered in deep purple markings. And, in late spring/early summer, flowers that are deep maroon colour with white centres.  The plant will soon bulk up and can be divided in spring to increase the number of plants you have.

    Many of the Mediterranean woody-stemmed herbs, like lavender, rosemary, and thyme, grow well in alkaline soil if given full sun. The free-draining nature of the soil suits them perfectly!  Avoid French or Spanish lavender if your garden is in a colder or more exposed area of the country.

    This wonderfully compact grey-green leaved cultivar produces dense clumps of deep purple, scented flower spikes great for cutting and drying.  Ideal for path edges, where brushing against the plants releases a delightfully refreshing fragrance and also for the smaller garden.

    Many woody stem herbs such as oregano, marjoram, and thyme flourish too. And they are easy to grow, attracting many pollinating insects when in flower. This superb plant produces gorgeous, deep purple flowers during the summer and has handsome, small, rounded dark leaves. Pollinating insects adore the flowers and flock to them, particularly on sunny days.

    Our native honeysuckle will grow well. There are lots of cultivars from it such as ‘Serotina’ and ‘Graham Thomas’ to choose from.  A more self-contained evergreen climber is star jasmine, which will also produce scented flowers during the summer.
