Dahlia 'Polka'

Note: We are taking a break from selling dahlias in order to build up our mother stock of tubers and to improve the process for our customers and our farm crew. Learn more about our decision and the future of Floret dahlias.

We’re continuing to research and experiment with different ways to share dahlias with other flower lovers. Until we are able to offer dahlia tubers again, we have compiled a list of our favorite dahlia suppliers.

Hands down the most popular variety we grew last season, this unique novelty is a must have. Plants are smothered in long-stemmed flowers all season long. Blooms are both weather resistant and long lasting in the vase. Layers of creamy petals, streaked with cranberry encircle a large, fluffy golden center. No two flowers are the same. There’s nothing else like it on the market!

Details:
Flower type: anemone
Height: 4’
Site: full sun
Days to maturity: 80-100 days
Plant spacing: 12-18”
Pinch: when plants are 12” tall

Harvesting/Vase Life:
Cut when blooms are ¾ of the way open, but not overly ripe. To do this, check the back of each flower head, looking for firm and lush petals versus papery or slightly dehydrated ones. Place into water with hydrator, or sear stem ends by placing into 160-180° water and allow to cool for 1 hour. Blooms will last 5-6 days.
