Dahlia "Smokey Jo'

Our very first "The Floral Mixologist" seedling grown out over the past 3 seasons, and let me tell you - she is an absolute beauty. Starting off in shades of white with the outer petals fading to a dusty lavender as they mature, the blooms are a perfect size to build into bouquets and arrangements and are held on long, sturdy and elegant stems. Plentiful stems for cutting that are sent up from early in the season, through to the first frosts. An absolute delight for any garden.

Tips From the Flower Grower: Dahlias thrive in a position that received 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. They are also heavy feeders so make sure to add compost and a handful of bone-meal to your hole before planting your tubers and to water well in areas that are prone to prolonged dry spells in summer.
