    Description

    Dahlia Dwarf Cactus Mix (Dahlia pinnata) is an eye-catching, compact heirloom variety celebrated for its striking, multi-colored blooms featuring narrow, pointed, quilled petals. Growing on sturdy, self-supporting 16- to 24-inch plants that require no staking, it produces a profusion of double and semi-double starburst-like flowers measuring 3 to 4 inches across. The blooms offer a rich spectrum of bright colors, including crimson, pink, yellow, orange, peach, and white. Ideal for container gardens, sunny border edges, and compact flower beds, this easy-to-grow tender perennial flowers heavily from early summer until frost and produces tubers that can be lifted for winter storage.
