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.

Gorgeous!

This dahlia came in a little later for me but was by far one of the most stunning flowers of the season. I would use this in a cut flower arrangement. It is so unique and beautiful and if cut at the right time lasted up to five days for me in a vase.

Beautiful!

It really stands out in the garden. No good as a cut flower but I will keep it. The bees also love it

Beautiful blooms from a sick plant

The plant clearly has a virus, but the blooms have been so beautiful I can't bring myself to yank it.
