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.

This flower is huge and I love the purple tones mixed with the pinks. A must have in my garden!
I bought two tubers 3 years ago and now have 40+ tubers. Has done well in Southern Maine conditions even with a very dry season last year. Usually blooms late August/early Sept. Lasted until mid November last year. Beautiful bright blooms that stood up with minimal help.
This is my second season with Helen Richmond and it is by far my favorite dahlia so far. One plant has been blooming prolifically with so many big, gorgeous flowers to cut and they last several days after cutting.
