Description
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.

Not true to description
"Very disappointed: 3 inch flowers are NOT "Dinner Plate" size! The flowers were mostly yellos, with some white on outer petals, but absolutely no other colors. I picked specifically for the large size and color, for contrast in my border, but it looked more like a zinnia."
Cheerful colors on a prolific bloomer
"Tried out the Peaches and Cream and was pleased with this one. The blooms are very cheerful and bright and make great cut flowers on their own, or in an arrangement with other dahlias or whatever else may be in bloom at the time. This one produced a ton of buds and was very sturdy for the large blooms. The colors varied a bit on the blooms too for fun subtle variations on this one. These are like sunshine in flower form, will be growing these again for sure."
Far smaller than dinner plate, but pretty
"My Peaches & Cream were the last to bloom. The stalks are over 7. 5 feet tall now, mid-October. The flower size is not dinner plate size. The widest diameter has been 4 inches. The blooms are pretty, though, and variagated. Some are more yellow and white. Some have more peach on the outer petals. Definitely require good staking."
Very happy with my dahlias from American Meadows
"I'm very pleased with my dahlia order. I bought Dinnerplate Dahlia Kelvin Floodlight (yellow), Dinnerplate Dahlia Snow Country (white), Dinnerplate Dahlia Thomas Edison (purple), Dinnerplate Dahlia Babylon Red (red) and Dinnerplate Dahlia Peaches and Cream (peach and white). I've listed them here by size from largest flower to smallest. And I'm posting this review under "Peaches and Cream" to alert you to the fact that the Peaches and Cream I got aren't really dinnerplate size. They're small, but I got DOZENS of flowers that have lasted for weeks. The plant looks terrific. At about mid summer it came to me that I probably should have supported my dahlias with stakes. Then my Rottweiler chased a stray dog into my Dahlias and knocked some down. Stakes probably would have helped with that, too. Still, they continue to produce wonderful flowers and I couldn't be any happier with my dahlia order."
