True blue flowers are quite difficult to come by. But with the Bluetiful Dahlia, you'll get the closest to true blue as any flower can get. These unique blue-lavender blooms are full and lush, with plenty of petals to create their fully double form. Plus, each petal has a slight ruffling effect, making the 5-6" flowers look even more amazing in the landscape. Planted in a sun-filled border or flanking an entryway, they present quite a display from summer to fall. Dahlias are not hardy, but they are easy to grow and deliver an extended period of bloom. They make an ideal choice for bouquets and indoor arrangements, too.

Totally satisfied with my Dahlias.

My Dahlias produced well and are still flowering. Since I have a terrible time in digging up and storing them for winter I plan on leaving them in the ground and mulching them heavily. My neighbor just abandoned the eight she planted last year, gave no extra mulching and all came back this year. Maybe I'll get lucky.
