Description
The flowers of 'Platinum Blonde' Anemone Dahlia have a ring of creamy white petals surrounding a floriferous buttercream center, calling to mind daffodils or double coneflowers. Like other anemone Dahlias, the subtle hues and intriguing form of these flowers are exceptional in cut flower arrangements. Dahlias are perennial in zones 8-10, but in cooler zones, tubers can be dug after frost comes, stored over winter, then re-planted the following spring. Grow Dahlias in a sunny spot, in average soil that drains well. Keep moisture consistent once it begins to grow and enjoy a non-stop color parade. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowers and pinch off small side buds to encourage larger flowers if desired.
