Know before you buy

While bloom size is consistently 4 to 6 inches, the overall plant height can vary based on soil quality and sunlight. Generally, you can expect this variety to reach a standard garden height of 3 to 4 feet.
Yes, the Perch Hill dahlia is well-suited for containers. Ensure you use a pot that is at least 12 inches deep and wide with adequate drainage to support the tuber's root system throughout the growing season.

Absolutely. In regions where the ground freezes, you should dig up the tubers after the first frost, clean off the soil, and store them in a cool, dry place over the winter to replant the following spring.
