Dahlia Mystique
Product Description
Dahlia 'Mystique'
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.
After trialing hundreds of varieties in search of the perfect muted raspberry-toned blooms suitable in size, shape, and color for high-end floral design, we finally found what we were looking for in ‘Mystique’. The medium sized, dusty-rose flowers are a sight to behold. Plants produce an abundance of long stemmed blooms all season long. The outside edge of the raspberry petals gently fade, creating the most beautiful smoky, dusted effect. 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.
