Product Description
If you've resisted Dahlia fever until now, Caballero will send you over the edge. Large, orange-red flowers are edged in yellow, highlighting their perfectly sculpted form. 4-6" wide blooms stand tall on sturdy stems with an elegant waterlily appearance. These easy-to-grow Dahlias will add color and fragrance to borders and fresh floral arrangements. Dahlias generally need to be lifted in fall anywhere temperatures dip below 35 degrees. However, we have seen over-wintering success in zone 6 when tubers are well-mulched or planted slightly lower in the ground than normal. Remove spent flower heads to encourage additional flowering.
