Color Story: White with glowing yellows or pinks and a hint of sparkle; whimsical, radiant, and full of movement
Best For: Show-stopping wedding work, large-scale event arrangements, and high-impact garden focal points
Vase Life: 3-4 days
Notes: At our wedding, we had a sweetheart table with a statement vase of just these beauties. They are STUNNING!
Dahlias thrive in full sun and warm soil (above 50°F). Depending on how many you intend to plant you can either dig a trench or individual holes. Place tubers about 4-6” deep horizontally with the eye/sprout facing up (if visible) and cover lightly with soil. If potting up indoors first, you can plant with neck above the soil line so you can monitor sprouting. Avoid watering until shoots emerge to prevent rot. Once established, they’ll bloom nonstop until frost.
