'Night Life' dahlia (Dahlia 'Night Life') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. Dark purple-red blooms open from early to late summer and again in early to late autumn. Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds visit the flowers. A.C. Koot bred it.
