DESCRIPTION
Dahlia ‘Hot Tamale’ explodes in the garden with bold red-orange petals edged in yellow-orange, held in an informal decorative form where the gently flared petals create a full, layered bloom. This fiery palette appears from mid-summer and continues well into the autumn, offering a sustained season of warmth and color on strong upright stems. Each flower appears as though lit from within, thanks to the contrasting yellow-orange edging that adds depth and motion to the red core. With its dramatic flowerheads and reliable performance, ‘Hot Tamale’ delivers consistent late-season impact for borders and fresh-cut arrangements 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.
