For those gardeners and flower enthusiast who has the goal of growing the biggest flowers on the block , favor the regular tall growing dahlias. Well cared for, they give great returns in floral exuberance – silky-textured reds, oranges, yellows, mahoganies, purples, blues, pinks, whites, in a number of different single and double flower forms.
Some prefer the dwarf varieties that grow from seed to bloom in 60 days. If you are growing Dahlia from tubers they should be dug each fall and stored over winter.
