Mother's Day Pink Dahlia

Need a magnificent show right in time to celebrate Mom? The Mother's Day Pink Dahlia (Dahlia 'Park Princess') is a whimsical and showy Cactus Dahlia with a spiky-looking pom-pom of bright pink petals! Sure to bring a smile to anyone's face!

Depending on a variety of factors in your garden, Mother's Day Pink Dahlia blooms can range from light to dark pink and even have blooms with varying degrees of pink on the same plant! Rising high above a mound of lush green foliage, these prolific flowering and reflowering perennial bulbs bring in butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds from near and far!

Mother's Day Pink Dahlia can grow 18-24 inches tall when in bloom and the mounds can spread 12-36 inches wide depending on climate, age, and soil conditions. Forming from bulb-like tubers, these perennials need protection from freezing temperatures. While Dahlia can be planted in all growing zones, climates with freezing winters need to "lift" them in the fall before the ground freezes solid.

Landscape Application:

Fantastic annual accents and seasonal pops of color in any sunny garden location, Mother's Day Pink Cactus Dahlia is a must-have for the cutting garden, Cottage border, and pollinator garden! Use these as mid-border focal points and in groupings or winding rows throughout a mixed perennial garden or mailbox garden!

Mother's Day Pink Dahlia loves moist soil and being pampered, so if you have poor soil, compacted soil, or live in an urban area, go ahead and plant your Dahlia in a large planter or mixed container on a porch, patio, or on either side of your front entry for a bit of shock value! Balcony gardeners and container gardeners gain a pretty-in-pink accent that is easy to grow and easy to love!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Plant Dahlia tubers in full sun for the best growth and the most blooms! The morning sun is best due to its drying power to clear the leaves of dew. Delicate Dahlia foliage also appreciates afternoon shade in hot climates and everywhere they love good air circulation! The key to successfully growing Dahlias is well-enriched soil with regular fertilizer. It is recommended that you add 3-4 inches of arborist bark mulch for consistent soil moisture and protect the roots.

Even though they are often referred to as 'bulbs' the roots of the Dahlia are tubers like potatoes and sprout from the 'eyes'. Plant Dahlia tubers between 10-12 inches deep in loosened, enriched soil. These modified roots need to be planted in very well-drained soil that won't become soggy. Tubers planted directly in the ground will start to sprout in about 3 weeks depending on your climate and weather.

Deadhead regularly for continuous rebloom and trim back yellowed foliage in the fall. Dig up the tubers for the winter. Store these bulbs in a cool, dark place for the winter.
