'Penhill Dark Monarch' Dahlia's irregular formation lends a stylishly ‘messy’ look to the chic, wild-looking gardens. Beautiful pink-and-purple splashed petals make each flower a bouquet unto itself. Perfect for the gardener who takes pride in collecting unusual and offbeat flowers to make their landscapes as memorable as themselves. (Dahlia)
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.

As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.

Poisonous or Toxic to Animals
Tubers and leaves are toxic if eaten in large amounts. Toxic to dog, cats and horses.
"The flowers I've gotten so far have been gorgeous and massive! The star of my summer bouquets. But of the 3 tubers I planted, only 2 sprouted, and only one is a healthy, vigorous, richly green plant. That's why she gets 4 stars."
— Mary (4/5)
Wonderful Saturated Color!
"I thought this rain soaked hot summer destroyed our dahlias but I was greeted but some beautiful large blooms today in a stunning saturated wine toned purple. Some blooms are solid and some have tonal mottling that is so unique. All in all very happy with these!"
— Sarah G. (5/5)
Got some nice flowers in Zone 10 (Naples, FL)
"Plants are still producing some flowers in late August. They were never "dinner-plate" size, but closer to 5 inches across. I'll plant them again. Tough to find Dahlias that really do well in zone 10."
— Jonaiste (4/5)

"This dahlia is gorgeous. Beautiful color and form"

Best addition to our dahlia collection
"Lovely shades color pointed petals."
— Nan (5/5)
