"Dahlia Bodacious" Flowering Bulb Garden Plants (7088) "Click Here"For Our"EBay Store"and Other Items!For Your"Hardiness Zone"Click Here Blooms Nearly a Foot Wide! Yellow tips and petal undersides create a "fiery flames" look!! You are bidding on "Dahlia Bodacious". If you only add one Dahlia to the garden this year, let it be this gigantic, over-over-the-top-gorgeous fiery red and gold beauty! It is a showstopper just waiting for you!  Bodacious boasts blooms nearly a foot wide, suffused with fire-engine red that shades to gold at the petal tips and undersides. If there's a more showstopping flower for size or color, I'd like to see it! More Information..... Every bloom on this plant is its own bouquet, filled with more color than you can find in a dozen or so lesser flowers! The petals are long and slightly twisty at the ends, revealing their golden undersides for a flame-like look that's really eye-catching. But their size is the real stunner -- 11 inches or so across, and every bit packed with bright color! The flowers arise steadily from midsummer to fall on big, vigorous plants. Bodacious reaches 4 feet tall and 3 feet wide, so stake it to support its huge blooms. And if you want just top-size blooms, remove a few side-shoots and buds so that the plant concentrates all its energy into making a few gigantic blossoms (rather than more slightly smaller ones!). It will flower for 3 months or more in most climates, keeping your garden attention-getting and your vases filled! This Dahlia blooms reliably from midsummer through fall from a spring planting. Best in the sunny garden, it prefers rich, well-drained soil high in organic matter, plenty of water, and staking to support its bounty of blooms. If you want bigger blooms, disbud a few branches and remove others altogether, so that the plant concentrates all its energy on making a few gigantic blooms rather than more smaller ones. Deadhead the flowers promptly to encourage new buds to arise even faster. North of zone 8, dig up the tuber in late fall and store in vermiculite or sawdust in a frost-free area. Then replant it in spring for another glorious bloom season!

Shipping CareHere at PerfectPlant we ship our plants in two basic forms, bareroot and in containers. Either way, your plants arrive ready to plant directly into the ground or pot into containers. Depending upon the species and time of year your plants may arrive in a dormant state (no leaves). New growth will appear within weeks or even days of planting. Bareroot plants are shipped without soil or container, and packed in moist wood shavings. Container plants are shipped with soil in a nursery container — which may be from 3" to 2 gallons, unless stated otherwise, depending on the age and growth rate of the plant — and topped with moist wood shavings during packing. Container plants provide a superior root system. Cut or separate tightly circled roots before planting. Questions?
