Dahlia ‘Mom’s Special’

‘Mom’s Special’ is a large and handsomely beautiful dinner plate dahlia. Its large flowers, 8-10 inches in diameter, are two-toned with white and violet accents running through the petals in streaks and splatters on petals that twist and curl. This is a tall variety growing up to 48 inches in height. Mix with perennials or in the back of the border. Dahlias are hardy to the winter temperatures of coastal BC but not to the winter wet. Grow outside in locations that are dry in winter or lift and store in a cool, dry location indoors like everyone else does.
