Andy's Legacy dahlia tuber.
1 tuber.
This is a stunning flower introduced in 2016 from Swan Island. The petals are a peachy orange inside with a purple underside, giving it a truly unique color. The bloom stems tend to be a little shorter, and benefits from disbudding for stronger stems. A really nice addition to your garden!

Planting: Your tubers can go directly into the ground in the spring when the ground has warmed and there is little chance of frost. One good guideline is to plant in the same time frame as you would a tomato. If you want blooms as early as possible, you can start the tubers indoors in good light about a month before planting time. You will then have a small plant ready at planting time. Dahlias can be planted as late as mid-June in most parts of the country.
