This variety is: KEITH H.

This is the tallest dahlia variety I have ever grown. Seriously, we’re talking over 6 feet tall if you measure to the top of the blooms! The height isn’t the only amazing thing about this dahlia. The bloom color is absolutely magnificent. It is a blushy yellow, with a peach-orange outline on the tips of the outer petals. The bloom is about 6 inches in diameter. Another great thing about this plant being so tall is that the stems are very long for cut flower bouquets and arrangement. It blooms from mid-summer through fall.


My name's Eve, and I am a dahlia farmer and college student in Battle Ground, WA. My passion for dahlias started with a few tubers from a friend, and grew into an obsession. I am very excited to offer these tubers (bulbs) from my dahlia garden. Learn more about me on my website: www.gardensbyevelyn.com.

-What are dahlias?
Dahlias are stunning, semi-tender, and tuberous perennial plants. They make eye-catching additions to flower beds, and are popular cut flowers for bouquets and arrangements.
The blooms can be as small as ping pong balls, or as large as frisbees. They come in almost every color. Blooms can be fluffy, flat, spiked, variegated, two-toned, striped, ball-shaped, twisted, ruffled, and more. Plant dahlia tubers in the spring for blooms that begin in the summer and continue until frost.

-How to grow dahlias
Dahlias are super easy to grow! They like full sun, with healthy soil (not too much nitrogen), and consistent water.
They happily grow as a perennial in well-drained soils where winter temperatures remain above 20 F (–6.7 C). Mulch can help to keep them warm. In colder climates, dahlias need to be dug up, stored in a garage or basement (at around 40-50 F, 4.5-10 C), and planted again the next spring.
Note that if you don’t want to bother digging them up, that’s okay. One plant makes so many blooms in a season that many consider dahlias worth the annual investment.

-Product details
There are pictures of example tubers in the listing, above. One tuber = one dahlia plant = many blooms per plant. The number of blooms per plant varies, depending on the variety (the smaller the bloom, the more you tend to get per plant).

I use a soil-based storage technique so the tubers will be dirty, dry, tough, firm, and healthy. Learn more about this unconventional technique and why I do it, here: www.gardensbyevelyn.com/the-easiest-way-to-store-dahlia-tubers

All dahlia tubers are carefully inspected for at least one “eye” prior to shipping (an eye is a tiny bud on a tuber that will sprout when planted). Sometimes eyes can be VERY small, or may not have started sprouting yet. As soon as the tuber is planted in damp soil, eye growth will begin.

Important Note: I only ship within the continental US due to laws regarding the export of plant materials.
