Description
Add some striking contrast to flower beds and borders with ‘Ferncliff Illusion’ Dinner Plate Dahlia. Perfect for cottage gardens and cutting beds.
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.

Teeny flowers
"These dahlias were super pretty and just as pictured (totally unique color) but they were only 3-4 inches across. They bloomed a lot and we're healthy but shouldn't be advertised as "dinerplate" in my opinion."
Later bloomer compared to other varieties, WORTH WAIT
"All three tuber clumps grew well despite it being an unusually hot summer. Blooms are better in person. One of my very favorites this season. Yellow is much subtler than in American meadows photos."
