Notes
'High Fidelity' dahlia (Dahlia 'High Fidelity') is a bulb for borders and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun and dry soil. The double flowers are four inches wide and tangerine orange, speckled and lined with red. They sit atop tall stems from summer to frost. Grow it outside where the soil stays dry in winter, or lift and store the bulbs in a cool, dry place indoors.
Pairs well with Becky Shasta daisy, Shenandoah switchgrass, and Mediterranean spurge.
