Snowbound Dinner Plate Dahlia
Stunning Dahlias have taken the gardening world by storm. They’re available in a broad range of flower forms, with colors ranging from soft pastels to vivid hues to deep rich shades, and they’re a must-have for cut flower bouquets. Dahlias are perennial in zones 8-10, but in cooler zones, tubers can be dug after frost comes, stored over winter, then re-planted the following spring. Grow Dahlias in a sunny spot, in average soil that drains well. Keep moisture consistent once it begins to grow and enjoy a non-stop color parade. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowers and pinch off small side buds to encourage larger flowers if desired.
