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.

I really loved growing this variety for the first time. I should have staked them, but not all of my dahlias had the best support. Nevertheless, Fatima produced a great abundance of flowers for cutting and adding to mixed arrangements, and even better still, produced a great number of tubers for saving. I love the glow this variety has when it opens too. Not at all disappointed.
I don't grow dahlias for cutting, I grow them to make a nice show in my garden. I planted two Fatima tubers this year. They grew about 5-1/2 feet tall. They have an odd stalky, gangly growth habit. The stems require serious staking to avoid breakage. The flowers are pretty, with long stems for cutting, but I don't find the plants attractive. They might look okay planted at the back of a border with a lot of other stuff around them, but not as specimen plants.
