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.

Very vibrant red, fades to more orange as time goes by, I love that the back petals are a slighty different, lighter shade. Long lasting blooms, prolific, early bloomer. Long stems, nice size for bouquets (5-6 inches), makes a wonderful cut flower. What more could you ask for?
I am on year three with this lovely. The red is so noble, and the longer the flower stays on the plant, the more orange yellow the petals become. Very good producer, but for me, I have had lots of trouble with it being a solid cut flower. Even when I cut early in the morning, the stems are quick to weather, and the pedals seem to soften. I will be dividing her this year and hope that by splitting out the tuber clump, I will get better quality from one plant as opposed to many fighting for Real estate. A gorgeous flower overall.
Love this Dahlia, glows, recommended by Swan, as I was looking for a vermillion color, and this is just lovely!
This variety was my favorite this year out of a 14 dahlias here in Michigan. The vibrant orangish red flower progressed to bi-color with lighter orange petal tips on the bottom rows as the flowers aged . Wonderful cut flower.
I received this from a friend and it was mislabeled as a formal .
The stems are long , some of the stems can be weak but looks great in a vase.
Lots of viable tubers for my friends. Color looks better in person,
I was blown away by this dahlia. Started blooming early, and has been extremely vigorous all season long. At any time, there are 3-4 in bloom, with 5-7 developing buds. They are medium sized, and a striking red color that looks even better than the photos. Beautiful wide water lily style petals, too. Don’t miss out!
It's listed as a waterlily however for me it was more of an "old style" dahlia variety, the kind my grandma grew in 1980s in Europe. It has many more petals than shown which make for a "boxy" profile. It's also very top heavy with somewhat of a floppy head that bents to the ground after the rain. It blooms fairly early but yield isn't great; I only had 4 blooms up to this point, and it's almost Equinox. The color is very interesting: it starts as a fiery red as it opens but then bottom petals fade into orange over the course of the week. The blooms lasts a long time on the plant: up to 2 weeks if not broken by a storm
I can literally see this from across my yard. Especially now in the fall when the leaves are changing and so many of my dahlias are going lovely shades of rust and orange, this vivid saturated dahlia is a standout. Nice flat water lily petals. Super stunning. A+
Wow! big, flower is graduated red (middle) to pale orange (outer) as it ages. Big flower, thin stems. Gorgeous specimen flower! Long lasting in the vase. Never have seen anything else like it. This year's favorite flower.
This dahlia has nice long stems. The colors are lovely with shades of orange going from darker to lighter and does well in mixed bouquets.
Only one flower so far (first year) but eye catching with blue-lavender asters
