Shady Grove Gardens Dahlia Tuber

This is a compact variety, generally staying smaller than standard dahlia types. It is an excellent choice for the front of a garden border or for containers where space is limited.

Yes, their mini size and prolific blooming habit make them ideal for small floral arrangements. Because the plant produces so many flowers throughout the season, you can cut stems regularly without depleting the display in your garden.

Because Golden Scepter is a compact variety, it usually does not require heavy staking like taller dahlia cultivars. However, if you live in a particularly windy area, a small support stake can help keep the stems upright.

In colder climates 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 winter. In warmer regions, they can often be left in the ground if the soil is well-draining.

For the best results and the most prolific flowering, plant your Golden Scepter in a location that receives at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily.
