Mirella dahlia showcases the classic ball form with radiant coppery-orange blooms measuring 3 inches across. The densely layered petals frame a warm golden-yellow center, creating striking visual depth. This variety reaches approximately 4 feet in height, making it an excellent choice for mid-border placement or cut flower arrangements. The luminous coloring and compact flower structure provide reliable garden performance and long-lasting vase life for floral displays.
How To Plant Dahlias
To get your dahlias started, pick a sunny spot with soil that drains well. Dig a hole, lay the tuber flat, and cover it with soil about 3 inches deep. Hold off on watering for now. Once you spot some sprouts and a few leaves, it’s time to water, but keep it gentle to prevent root rot. It’s a smartto put the stake next to the tuber at the same time of planting, so you don’t accidentally damage it later on.
As the season goes on, give your dahlias some love with fertilizer and insect sprays to help them bloom beautifully and grow strong. In the fall, dig up the roots and store them over winter.
