Stunning soft blushes of pink. It has a distinctive richer toned centre. Good for exhibitions. When at its best this stunning miniature cactus has been likened to a miniature Kiwi Gloria, and that is high accolade indeed. Raised by the Late Peter Greenway, this was, in his opinion, the best of his seedlings and was the result of a 2013 cross between Josudi Telstar and Josudi Neptune. Needs regular watering. Although weatherproof, the quality of blooms produced under cover are far superior. Andromeda is a strong grower getting up to 1.5m high. It appears at its best when left undisbudded, and with as many flowering stems on the plant as it will take, so a double stop is advisable.
Dahlias require a fertile, moist but well-drained soil, and a sunny, sheltered spot. The taller varieties need staking. In autumn, dig up the tubers and overwinter them in a frost-free place, such as a greenhouse or a shed. Bring them back into growth in early April, then plant out in the garden from May onwards.
