Dahlia Hollyhill Calico
Product Description
Dahlia 'Hollyhill Calico'
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.
This darling treasure was one of the standouts in our trial patch last summer. The tricolor blooms are a unique mix of peach, white and gold, and no two flowers are alike. An excellent cut flower and garden addition. A must grow!

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.
