Sun Spot Dahlia

Sun Spot Dahlia produces stunning 3" ball-form blooms that shift from soft pink to deeper rose tones, each petal kissed with hints of golden yellow. This vigorous variety reaches 4 feet tall, making it an excellent choice for mid-to-back garden borders and cut flower arrangements. The color variation across blooms adds natural charm and visual interest throughout the growing season. How To Plant Dahlias To get your dahlias started, pick a sunny spot with soil that drains well. Dig a hole, lay the tuber flat, and cover it with soil about 3 inches deep. Hold off on watering for now. Once you spot some sprouts and a few leaves, it’s time to water, but keep it gentle to prevent root rot. It’s a smart to put the stake next to the tuber at the same time of planting, so you don’t accidentally damage it later on. As the season goes on, give your dahlias some love with fertilizer and insect sprays to help them bloom beautifully and grow strong. In the fall, dig up the roots and store them over winter.
