Field Notes: Absolutely stunning in year 1 and early year 2 but quickly changed colouring and bloom attachment became weaker than I like. Attachment does get better the more mature they are but not ideal for my goals. Affectionately nicknamed calico due to its habit of changing color. Each bloom changes drastically throughout the year, beginning with a stunning smoky raspberry picotee and eventually calico with occasional white petals.
‼️This dahlia has 4 tuber clumps, see last photo. If you don’t have space for all 4, please let me know how many you’d like shipped in notes at checkout and I’ll discard those you don’t want. Otherwise they will all ship to you.
🚨 If you’d like me to divide your clumps, you must purchase the “Divide For Me” Listing for an additional fee. If not purchased, your tubers will ship to you as clumps.
‼️ Please note: I won’t be held responsible for storage failure or improper care. There will be no returns or refunds for Adopt-A-Dahlias. Due to our excessive rains, many will have lenticels (white bumps along the tubers) this is a survival mechanism during excessive moisture and is nothing to worry about. All clumps have been inspected are deemed to be free of leafy & crown gall. Your crowns will be lumpy & bumpy, this is normal. Your plants were also inspected all season for viral symptoms and have been deemed healthy. As is always the case when digging g tubers, some may have broken ends or necks, this is to be expected. Purchasing means you have read and understand this and take responsibility for storage.
Seedling Note: Dahlia seedlings are unique and can be a little unpredictable! Their colour, form, size, or plant habit may change as the plant matures and from year to year. That’s part of the fun of growing seedlings! 🌸
