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.
10" blooms in a soft delicate pink, which blend to white in the center. Flowers have excellent depth and angle, making this an excellent exhibition variety in the A size class. Plant height is 3' and if cut the blooms hold a long time.
This variety is a sport of Emory Paul with 12" - 14" pink with purple splashed blooms on strong stems. Plant height 4'. This variety can produce solid pink or purple blooms throughout the season.

Gorgeous 10” pink blossoms blend to a white center. Very strong plant growing to 4'. This beauty was awarded the 2016 Derrill W. Hart Award by the American Dahlia Society for its outstanding blooms. In some weather conditions, this pink may show a lavender tone to the blossoms.
I was so looking forward to Appleblossom. I was disappointed early on when the tuber didn't produce - a small sprout and then nothing until the very end of the season in the Boston area. It valiantly put out a single flower which clearly wasn't its best self. When I dug up the tuber, I saw no signs of mold or anything else - it just kind of died off.

Bees' favorite!
This is my only single, and new to me this year. Next year I plan to add a few more. It's a very pretty flower. It wasn't a super-prolific bloomer (so far) but it made up for that with it's charm. I didn't cut any so I can't speak to others' experience with it's longevity in the vase. On the plant they blooms last and the bees prefer it over any other variety. Each flower always has at least two, often 3, sometimes 4! I think they camp there overnight.

diseased
I've purchased this two years in a row and both years this variety was diseased. I know disease is a huge problem in the dahlia community. After spending $100's on tubers, testing etc., I am realizing the only way to keep your garden disease free is to propagate your own. These huge farms really can't provide disease free stock.

Diseased two years in a row
In 2023 I planted this tuber but by mid summer I noticed very slow growth and off colored leaves. I tested for TSV and it was positive. I should have asked for a refund but didn’t. This year I again ordered it thinking I was the reason for the disease. But I had a repeat this year. I did not spend the hundreds of dollars on testing but rather isolated all new tubers and culled anything that looked sick. I believe Swan Islands stock of this tuber is diseased. It has turned me off from purchasing new tubers from anyone except those gardeners who have a great interest in disease control. I buy from my society sale. This variety is hard to come buy buy not worth the risk of spreading disease.

Bee magnet, sweet buttery yellow flowers
All I had to do was sink a stake and tie this dahlia to it. Lots of continuous blooming. Larger flowers than I expected, and so sweet. Soft buttery yellow tinted with pink and peach, with a stronger yellow center. . Appearance reminds me of cosmos only stand up to the Seattle area rain even better. Sturdy stems for cutting, and absolutely adored by native pollinators. I ordered more for this year.
