Hi just wondering when I should see the little blooms...coming out of the Dahlia, Im thinking mine look a little dry.....and shriveled : (

[bluejay1025]

Can you please tell me if there is a brown to pinky peach colored dalhia? If so when do they bloom?

[WhiteFlowerFarm]

@bluejay1025 There are Dahlias that range in color from beige to peach-pink tones; most Dahlias start blooming in mid to late July and continue flowering until frost. You can see our full offering at our website, though I don't think we have any brownish dahlias.

Hi just wondering I was planting my Dahlia, and the root that was coming out of the plant fell off, yikssssss will this flower still grow for me : (

[WhiteFlowerFarm]

@lucysnoopy57 Unfortunately if the tuber (root) fell off the Dahlia, it will not grow.

[wildflowerchef]

please tell us how deep to plant, how far apart the plants should be both side to side and length to length.

[WhiteFlowerFarm]

@wildflowerchef We advise planting the Dahlia crowns four inches below soil level, and spaceing the tubers 15-24" apart-in any direction.

Go to 2:45 if you want to actually see the lady get to "how to plant."

Try staking when planting the tuber. Either use the permanent stake so you can tie the stems to the stake as they grow OR use a temporary stake when planting to 1) mark where the tuber is 2) replace the temporary stake with the permanent one with no fear of spearing the tubers.
