Plant Dahlias Pretty In Pink Blend in early spring, and in summer to late fall, typically to first frost, it blooms in masses of elegant double flowers in shades of shell pink and rose pink. This dahlia blend of Diana's Memory and Pink Magic creates a stunning display. Borne on long, sturdy stems, the highly decorative blooms attract butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden and make excellent cut flowers.
Dahlia hybrid varieties, commonly called dahlia, the Pretty In Pink Blend plants are clump-forming perennials with an upright habit. They are great container and garden plants, nice in beds and the middle of the border. They make stunning specimens but are shown to best effect when massed or grouped.
Very easy to grow, dahlia grows best in sunny locations with fertile, humus-rich, well-draining soil, protected from strong winds. The plant tolerates clay, loam, and sandy soils with a neutral, acidic, or alkaline pH. During the growing season, dahlia should be kept consistently moist and never allowed to dry out. Pinching out growing tips encourages a bushy plant. Deadheading spent flowers promotes additional blooms. The plants are not pet friendly.
