Super productive dahlia with durable blooms and a long vase life. Strong, straight stems and ball-shaped flowers. Another perk? An excellent tuber producer. Such a pretty color.

We sell our tubers individually, so you can be sure you’re getting a healthy, carefully inspected one. Each tuber has a viable eye or will develop one by planting time. Some dahlia varieties naturally produce smaller tubers, but don’t worry—size doesn’t affect their beautiful blooms!
All of our tubers are grown right here on our farm, using top-notch sanitation practices. We don’t resell imports or clumps—just tubers that we’ve lovingly cared for and nurtured for at least three years.
Please Note: **Shipping will begin end of March/April 2025, weather permitting. We ship based on location and weather conditions.

How to Grow:
- Planting: Plant tubers 4-6 inches deep in well-draining soil, spaced 12 to 18 inches apart.
- Sun: Dahlias love the sun! Make sure they get at least 6 hours of sunlight a day for optimal growth.
- Tend: Once your plants reach about 18 inches, it’s time for a good pinch! Pinching helps promote branching, which means more blooms for you. Just snip about 3-4 inches from the center stalk, right above the next set of leaves.
Staking your dahlias is also a great idea to keep long, straight stems and protect them from wind. We use the corralling method, but if you’ve got just a few plants, staking each one individually works great too!
- Water: Keep the soil moist, but not too soggy, for the best results.
- Winter Care: If you live in a colder climate, dig up the tuber in the fall and store it in a cool, dry place over the winter.
