Notes

'Happy Hour' dahlia (Dahlia 'Happy Hour') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil. The large, ball-type blooms are fully double and rosy pink on tall, strong stems. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. Protect it from winter wet, or lift and store it in a cool, dry, frost free spot.

Pairs well with Pineapple sage, Purple top, and Blue Angel hosta.
