About:- Dahlia Beauty Mix is dwarf, multi-coloured and long-lasting flowers. Dahlia is a genus of bushy, tuberous, herbaceous perennial plants native to Mexico. Dahlias belong to the Aster family along with daisies and sunflowers. The national flower of Mexico, Dahlias today has become one of the most popular competition flowers amongst competitive growers. The Dahlia flower consists of numerous delicate petals that encircle a central yellow core known as the capitulum or floral head. Dahlias can be grown in varying shades of white, yellow, orange, red, pink and purple.

PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS:-

• Dahlias grow more blooms with 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight and thrive in rich, well-drained soil. They love the morning sunlight best.
• The main season is the best time for the Dahlia, reaching full bloom in the mid-summer months and being available from June right through to October.
• Plant the seeds about ¼ inches deep in well-draining soil and keep the soil evenly moist. Germination should take about 15 to 20 days.

GROWING REQUIREMENTS:-
