Our dahlia seeds come from both open and close centered dahlias with a wide array of colors. With every seed a new variety is born! Dahlia seeds produce new fun, and unique flowers! Unlike a tuber, it is not a clone of the mother plant. Growing dahlia from seeds are always a fun surprise! Our bee’s enjoy the blooms from late summer to fall.
Packet Size: approximately 15 seeds
Sow indoors 4-5 weeks before last frost. Do not plant seeds directly in the soil, or they typically will not germinate.
Watch for germination in 5-10 days.
Plant out after last frost when soil temperatures are at least 65 degrees.
Space about 12” apart in full sun
Must be planted in well draining soil that doesn’t hold water. Soil that hold water might cause the tubers to rot.
Pinching the first year isn’t always required. We like to give the flower 1 year establish tubers.
80-90 days to maturity/blooms. Dahlias need 120 days of warmer temperatures to bloom. They do best in areas where the heat is between 65-80 degrees. They do not love excessively high temperatures for long periods of time.
Annual flower and requires some work in the fall if your have cold, snowy, winters. The tubers need to be dug up each year and stored in a cool, dark place that isn’t overly dry to plant for the next year. The tubers the first year might be very small. See our FAQs for more dahlia tips.
Dahlias require some extra love. They can grow 4-5 ft tall so staking and corralling are recommended to keep the plants from breaking or falling down.
