Dahlia Tubers (Ball & Dinnerplate) - Swing Dance Mix

The Swing Dance Mix Dahlia Tubers offer a versatile selection of both Ball and Dinnerplate varieties, providing a range of bloom sizes and plant structures for home gardens. These tubers are selected for their genetic potential to produce distinct floral forms, ranging from the symmetrical, rounded petals of Ball dahlias to the large, expansive blooms characteristic of Dinnerplate varieties.

Planting and Cultivation Guidelines

To support optimal development and emergence, proper planting techniques are recommended. Dahlias require well-draining soil and a location that receives consistent sunlight. When planting, ensure the tuber is placed horizontally at a depth of 4 to 6 inches, depending on soil texture. Consistent moisture levels are necessary during the initial establishment phase; however, avoid waterlogged conditions to maintain tuber health.

Growth Cycle and Maintenance

• Soil Preparation: Incorporate organic matter to improve drainage and nutrient availability for the developing root system.
• Temperature Requirements: Plant after the danger of frost has passed and soil temperatures have warmed to at least 60°F (15°C).
• Spacing: Provide adequate spacing between tubers, typically 18 to 24 inches, to allow for air circulation and foliage development.
• Support: As the plants reach maturity, particularly the larger Dinnerplate varieties, staking may be required to provide structural support for the stems and blooms.
