DESCRIPTION
Dahlia ‘Nijinsky’ displays deep plum‑purple blooms in a classic ball form, with dense, tightly wrapped petals forming smooth, rounded flower heads on sturdy stems. Blooms begin in midsummer and continue steadily through early autumn, offering a reliable and generous flowering period. The rich purple tone remains consistent even as flowers mature, making the heads excellent for cut‑flower use and garden planting alike. Because ‘Nijinsky’ produces abundant heads and maintains good stem length, it’s often praised for both floral arrangements and landscape presence during peak dahlia season.

    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.
