Fertilize: Fertilize dahlia 'Jescot Julie' bi-weekly using balanced fertilizers like 5-10-5 or 10-20-20 for blooming. Switch to monthly during dormancy, using half-strength mixtures.

Pruning: Dahlia 'Jescot Julie' features vibrant blooms and lush foliage. Prune in early spring to remove damaged stems and promote growth. Cut above leaf nodes for branching.
