🌸 Dahlias:🌸 The Darlings of the Garden

If you’re looking to add bold color, intricate shapes, and late-season blooms to your garden, dahlias are the perfect choice. These stunning flowers come in a dazzling array of forms—from delicate ball types to dramatic dinner-plate varieties—and bloom from mid-summer right through to the first frost.

At Dream Acre, we adore dahlias for their rich personality and how easily they complement our beloved chrysanthemums. Whether you’re planting them in garden beds or cutting them for vases, dahlias bring unmatched flair.

A few quick tips for happy dahlias:

  • Sun lovers: Dahlias thrive in full sun—at least 6 hours a day.

  • Well-drained soil: Plant tubers in fertile, loose soil for best results.

  • Deadhead often: Regularly remove spent blooms to keep flowers coming.

  • Lift in winter (for most regions): Once the foliage dies back, lift and store the tubers in a cool, dry place to replant next season.

We offer a small selection of dahlia tubers—including customer favorites like Cafe au Lait and Dragons Blood. Preorders open soon—keep an eye out!
