DESCRIPTION
Dahlia ‘Macalister’s Pride’ opens to rich raspberry blooms with glowing yellow‑gold centers and softly tapered petals arranged in the semi‑cactus form. Flowers begin revealing their color in midsummer and continue steadily into early autumn, delivering extended garden presence and long stem suitability for cutting. The petals’ outward curl gives a dynamic yet tidy silhouette, while the color transition—from gleaming yellow core to intense raspberry edges—adds depth to each head. Supported by dark foliage and strong stems, this variety offers reliable performance and year‑long impact in borders and containers.

    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.
