Michele Violet Dahlia

The Michele Violet Dahlia showcases exquisite bicolor blooms in soft lavender and pristine white, each flower reaching a generous 5 inches across. This informal decorative variety is a prolific performer, generating abundant flowers throughout the growing season—ideal for cutting gardens and floral arrangements. Expect mature plants to reach 4 feet in height, providing substantial stems for bouquets and displays. A reliable choice for gardeners seeking consistent, high-volume blooms. How To Plant Dahlias To get your dahlias started, pick a sunny spot with soil that drains well. Dig a hole, lay the tuber flat, and cover it with soil about 3 inches deep. Hold off on watering for now. Once you spot some sprouts and a few leaves, it’s time to water, but keep it gentle to prevent root rot. It’s a smart  to put the stake next to the tuber at the same time of planting, so you don’t accidentally damage it later on. As the season goes on, give your dahlias some love with fertilizer and insect sprays to help them bloom beautifully and grow strong. In the fall, dig up the roots and store them over winter.
