Decorative dahlias are known for their full, double blooms with broad, flat petals, creating a refined and symmetrical appearance. Available in formal and informal varieties, they range from compact bedding types to large dinnerplate-sized flowers, offering versatility in garden designs and floral arrangements.
Blooming from midsummer until frost, these dahlias thrive in full sun with well-drained soil and benefit from regular deadheading to encourage continuous flowering. Their rich color palette and structured form make them excellent choices for borders, mixed plantings, and cut flower gardens.
