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 might be disappointed in this because I favor dahlias with flowers one can fully appreciate while walking by. Even with supports, I the flowers on this one face downwards. So I haven't really been able to appreciate the beauty of individual blooms. It is in a very sunny location and other varieties of dahlias right next to it have very upright blooms, so it is this variety, not the location. It also is not a great cut flower, and I have been enjoying dahlias for cutting a lot this year. However, a friend of mine with a more informal and wild garden really likes the dramatic flowers and intense color on this plant, so I will be passing this on to her. I think it would work well in gardens with lots of plants, where this would be one of many.
