Striking Dahlia for Late Summer Garden Colour
Dahlia Ton Sur Ton is a standout summer-flowering dahlia known for its distinctive two-tone petals and strong garden performance. Supplied by Kapiteyn, this variety produces eye-catching blooms that bring depth and interest to borders, beds and containers from mid-summer through to autumn.
With petals showing a deeper shade on the reverse and a softer tone on the upper surface, Ton Sur Ton fully reflects its French name, meaning “tone on tone”. The result is a dynamic flower that adds movement and visual contrast to planting schemes.
Ideal for Borders, Containers and Cutting
Dahlias are valued for their long flowering season, typically from July to October, and Ton Sur Ton is no exception. This variety is well suited to cottage-style borders, contemporary planting schemes and more exotic garden designs. It also performs exceptionally well as a cut flower, producing more blooms the more often it is cut.
Growing Advice
Plant dahlia tubers in a sunny, sheltered position once the risk of frost has passed. Dahlias prefer free-draining soil and regular watering during dry periods. As a tender plant, winter protection is required, either by lifting tubers after the first frost or providing adequate insulation in milder areas.
