Description

Garden Dahlias (Dahlia variabilis) are beloved for their dazzling array of flower shapes, sizes, and colors—ranging from petite pom-poms to large, dinner-plate blooms in every hue except true blue. These tuberous perennials are prized for their long blooming season, making them a standout in summer and fall gardens. Whether planted in beds, borders, or containers, their vivid blossoms attract pollinators and provide stunning cut flowers.

Native to Mexico and Central America, Garden Dahlias thrive in full sun and rich, well-draining soil. While they require regular watering and benefit from staking for taller varieties, they reward gardeners with weeks of vibrant color. In cooler climates, tubers can be dug up and stored over winter for replanting in spring. Their endless variety and bold presence make Dahlias a favorite among flower enthusiasts and landscape designers alike.
