Dahlia ‘Cherry Drop’ bursts into bloom with bright red waterlily‑form flowers nestled above lush dark‑green foliage.

Blossoming begins in midsummer and carries through into early autumn, delivering a reliable season of cheerful red blooms. The layered petals lie mostly flat yet maintain a rounded profile that holds well in arrangements, and the rich red tone adds depth and warmth to garden beds and vase 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.
