Dahlia Gerrie Hoek

If you want to grow an elegant classic in delicate shades, Gerrie Hoek Dahlias should be on your short-list. They are waterlily dahlias measuring 10-15cm in diameter and looking very like the aquatic flower but without the fuss of a pond! Shaded shell pink, rounded petals get paler towards the outside of the flower, complemented by light yellow hues among the heart petals, which look painted on. However if you're looking for a different type of dahlia, do peruse our full range.

Gerrie Hoek is also an early flowerer, as early as mid-June if conditions are right, an added bonus! However, as it goes on flowering all summer it has also been a favourite of exhibitors in the late summer flower shows.

Looks Good In Your Garden...

Dahlia Gerrie Hoek is one of the taller varieties at 1.2m, so it would be great in the middle of a mixed border but close enough so you can appreciate the wonderful markings on the petals.

Add the contrast of its dark, strong stems and foliage and you'll see why Gerrie Hoek is so loved. The wonderful colouring makes it an excellent flower to tie together warm and cool shades in your borders or flower arrangements. It looks particularly good with contrasting shapes to its exotic flowers, such as Verbena bonariensis and ornamental grasses, which will provide a wonderful backdrop to let the blooms take centre stage.

With a long lifespan, Gerrie Hoek makes an excellent cut flower, either in a vase or in a bouquet.

Because couriers sometimes experience delays, we schedule delivery by week, not by day. Therefore, please plan your planting day for the weekend at the end of the delivery week or for the week following delivery, at the earliest.
We will email you the day before your plants are due to arrive.

*Surcharges to the Highlands and Islands still apply.

Payment: We do not charge your card until we begin to prepare your order for packing.

Guarantee: If any plants die within a year, we will replace them. We only ask that you follow our planting & growing instructions and sent us clear photographs of the dead plants in situ, so we can help to make sure that the replacement plants succeed. You only pay for the delivery of the replacements.

Please note that our guarantee is void if there is a hosepipe ban in your area: your newly planted hedging must be watered in dry weather while it is establishing. The best way to water is very thoroughly every few days: at least once a week if there is no heavy rain.

Our nursery has been supplying container grown and bareroot hedging plants to gardeners, farmers and town planners since 1949. Our website started in 2003, so we do understand the concerns that you may have about buying hedging plants online. If any of your plants are damaged when they arrive or if you are otherwise not satisfied with your order after you inspect it, please repackage it and contact us. We will give you a refund or send replacements and send a courier to come and collect the unwanted plants.

Ashridge Nurseries is working as normal and the despatching of bareroot plants is underway.

You can see Current Delivery Information Here. We are now taking orders for delivery in January 2021.
