Notes: Kelgai Ann is relatively small in stature and doesn't need as much support or staking as other varieties.  For all the florists and cut flower growers, her stems are thin, but straight. Her flowers are delicate. The vase life is typically several days at the most. In my opinion, she does not make for a great cut flower, but she is absolutely stunning as a focal plant in the garden. We've seen photos of Kelgai Ann with a lot of pink on the petals, but for us, she blooms mostly a cream color with a few subtle hints of pink on the outer petals. As the weather cools, she puts out more pink streaks on her petals. We did our best to photograph what she looks like when she blooms here in zone 8B. Kelgai Ann is one-of-a-kind and best enjoyed as a garden flower. 

This listing is for one (1) dahlia tuber. All tubers will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail beginning in April, weather permitting.

Dahlia care: Wait until all danger of frost is past before planting. Dahlias should not be planted outdoors until ground temperature reaches 55-60 degrees. Hold off planting if the forecast is predicting rain. Overwatering newly planted tubers may lead to rot.

Dahlias thrive in rich, well-drained soil. Use slug and snail bait at planting, don't wait until the sprout appears.

Dahlias should be planted in full sun in a location that receives a minimum of 6-8 hours of sun.

Most dahlias grow quite tall and require support, similar to tomato plants.

Most importantly, I hope these tubers grow into beautiful plants that bring you joy for years to come. Thank you for supporting my small business!
