DESCRIPTION
Dahlia ‘Bed Head’ features vivid coral-orange blooms housed in an incurved cactus form, with petals that curl and twist outward and then inward to create a wild, textured flower head reminiscent of a tousled hairstyle. The bright 4‑inch blossoms appear beginning in midsummer and continue into the early fall, offering long‑stemmed blooms that hold well in arrangements. Plants carry their blossoms aloft on sturdy stems above lacy foliage, and the bouquets gradually deepen in color with hints of red appearing on some petals over time. With lively form, bold color, and enduring presence, ‘Bed Head’ adds playful texture to garden beds and fresh‑cut displays alike.

    Dahlias are generally low-maintenance. They do best in well-draining soil and prefer full sun for optimal growth and flowering. Tubers can be planted outside after the last frost. Nourish with a balanced fertilizer once the plants are established.

    Throughout the growing season, provide regular watering, support for tall varieties, and deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms. Harvest blossoms when buds are 3/4 open.
