Water: Dahlia 'All Directions' requires ample water due to its large leaves, but the fleshy roots can rot from overwatering. Water promptly during drought and ensure good drainage in rainy conditions. Water once daily during early seedling growth and increase frequency in later stages, preferably before sunrise or after sunset.

Fertilize: Dahlia 'All Directions' thrives in fertile soil. Use a thin liquid nitrogenous fertilizer every 10-15 days initially, shifting to phosphate-potassium as it matures. When flower buds show color, cease fertilization. Monitor for deficiencies or excess: light leaves indicate lack, scorched edges signify surplus.

Pruning: To enhance the vibrant blooms of dahlia 'All Directions', prune old stems to soil level in early spring, and remove dead material. Pinch young stems for bushiness, ensuring adequate sunlight and air circulation. Regular maintenance prevents overcrowding and supports robust growth throughout the blooming season.

Propagation: Propagation methods for dahlia 'All Directions' include root division, cuttings, and sowing. Root division involves planting tubers at 15℃, producing about five seedlings. Cuttings yield faster and higher survival rates; buds should be cut when 3-5 cm long. Sowing is primarily for breeding, with blooms appearing in 1-2 years.
