Breck's Caribbean Fantasy Dahlia

Yes. Dahlias are tender perennials, so you must lift and store the tubers in a cool, frost-free location once the first frost hits in the fall to ensure they survive until the next planting season.

Absolutely. Because they grow to about 39 inches tall, they work beautifully in large containers, provided you use a well-draining potting mix and ensure the pot has adequate drainage holes.

These thrive in full sun, which means they need at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily to produce those large, fully double blooms.

While no plant is completely deer-proof, these dahlias are generally avoided by deer, making them a much safer bet for gardens in areas with high wildlife traffic.

You should space the tubers 24 inches apart. This ensures proper airflow between the plants, which helps prevent fungal issues and allows each plant enough room to reach its full size.
