$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Dahlia ‘Missy Sue’ showcases soft lavender‑pink blooms in the waterlily form, a classification defined by broad, gently cupped petals that lie relatively flat and open, creating a shallow dish‑like flower head. These delicate hues appear on long stems beginning in midsummer and continue steadily through the first frosts of autumn, offering extended enjoyment in borders and bouquets. The gentle coloration and refined form give ‘Missy Sue’ a dreamy, graceful presence in garden displays and fresh‑cut arrangements where a subtle touch of color and elegant structure are desired.

    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.
