How to Grow

Dahlias are grown from tubers (similar to a bulb, but thin-skinned like a potato). Plant tubers in the springtime, about the same time as you would your vegetable gardens or when the ground is warm enough to work up and play in daily. Plant them in a full sun location (giving them 6-8 hours of direct sunlight) and enjoy blooms all summer long. They will bloom and provide you with color and abundant flowers for cutting and enjoying throughout the summer.
The more you cut a dahlia plant, the more it will bloom. Most cut dahlias will last up to 5 days once cut and treated.

true Showstopper

This is an unbelievably beautiful dahlia. It is a HUGE healthy plant with tons of laterals. The pink and yellow accents on the petals are divine. Its stunning even as opening!

Pleasantly surprised

This one blends so very well in arrangements. At first I didn't love it, but then I found how wonderful it compliments other fall flowers and now it's a must-have!

Not great cut

As a cut flower grower, I was excited something white, but interesting. The flowers are beautiful, with a beautiful hint of yellow. But they are not a good cut flower in my opinion. Often wilting before I can even sell them.

Beautiful!

We grown on the Oregon Coast. The plant was vigorous. Our blooms were at least 7 inches, mostly yellow with only a hint of pink! Definitely growing it again!

Very beautiful, healthy plant, long blooming

This was one of my favorites last year. I grew it in front of Helen Richmond, and the contrast between the two was wonderful. It was easy to grow, and had multiple blooms all season long.
