Product Description
DAHLIA: The word dahlia means "plant with tube- like stems”. With a blast of different colors, shapes and sizes, Dahlias bring life and beauty back to your landscape in late summer and into the fall months. The diversity of Dahlias allow you to use them in many different aspects of your landscape design, from low growing border plants to stately background plantings which may reach six feet in height. Dahlias make excellent cut flowers, which typically last about a week in the house.
Life Style Powder-Puff Dahlia: A fancy, two-tone dahlia with flamingo pink petals surrounding a golden yellow center. The compact plants stand just over 2 feet tall and never need staking. Bright, summer-long color for flower beds, borders and pots. This is an exciting new class of dahlias coming out of the well known low-growing anemone type. The flowers are as large as the Giant Decorative and in a few varieties almost as big as Dinner Plate Dahlias.
Originating from Mexico and Guatemala, Dahlias were the flowers of Inca kings and despite their royal origins Dahlias are amongst the easiest plants to grow in the garden. They are a wonderful source of cut flowers and will provide a veritable cornucopia of colorful blooms for your bouquets from mid summer until the first hard frost in the late fall. Dahlias are hardy in zones 8 -10. Dahlias are susceptible to cold so be careful not to plant them too early and be sure to dig them up and store them in a frost-free place before old Jack Frost comes calling if you are planting them in a cooler zone! Your new Dahlias tubers can be stored in the refrigerator until planting time or get a head start on spring and start them indoors in a sunny window.
