DESCRIPTION
Dahlia 'Kelsey Cowboy' makes a bold statement with its vivid red petals, contrasted by a set of smaller raspberry-colored inner petals that surround a striking yellow center. This collarette dahlia belongs to the Collarette group, known for its distinctive two-layered bloom structure: an outer ring of single petals and a smaller, complementary set of inner petals that form a delicate collar. The vibrant center remains open, adding a bright touch of warmth and attracting pollinators. Classified as miniature in size, 'Kelsey Cowboy' may be small, but its dynamic color contrast and lively form make it a standout in any garden, perfect for adding a burst of bold color to floral arrangements or borders.

    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.
