100 Seeds Dahlia pinnata Mix Flower Seeds

Dahlia pinnata, commonly known as dahlia, is a tuberous-rooted perennial prized for its long bloom season and wide array of flower colors and forms. This mix brings together a range of single and semi-double blooms in warm and cool tones, making it a favorite for borders, cutting gardens, and container plantings. Plants grow vigorously through the warm season and produce abundant flowers from midsummer until frost.
Dahlia pinnata works well in mixed beds, pollinator-friendly landscapes, and cut flower arrangements thanks to its sturdy stems and lasting blooms. The mix offers a varied palette suitable for both formal and cottage-style gardens. Tubers can be lifted and stored in cold climates, while in mild regions plants may overwinter in the ground with adequate drainage.
