25 Seeds Kelsey Ann Dahlia, Dahlia Pinnata, Bicolor White Pink Blooms, Easy Grow Perennial Flower
Kelsey Ann Dahlia is a charming bicolor variety that produces soft white petals delicately blushed with pink, creating elegant, button-like blooms. These seeds grow into sturdy, upright plants that add a refined, cottage-garden feel to sunny borders, mixed beds, and patio containers. With a long flowering period and a neat habit, this dahlia is a rewarding choice for gardeners who enjoy growing beautiful cut flowers or decorative garden accents from seed.
Perfect for ornamental plantings, these dahlias thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, producing abundant blossoms from midsummer to the first autumn frost. Use them to create stunning flower arrangements or to brighten borders with their gentle color contrast. While dahlias are technically tender perennials, they are often grown as annuals in cooler climates and will bloom reliably in a single season when started indoors early. Provide regular watering and occasional feeding for optimal performance.
