Avignon Dahlia Plant

The Dinnerplate Dahlia, 'Avignon', presents a spectacular display with flowers that can span up to 9 inches in diameter. Its petals, a canvas of pure white, are artfully splashed and speckled with rich burgundy-red, creating a striking contrast. These dramatic blossoms add a touch of elegance and whimsy to any garden, captivating the eyes and hearts of those fortunate enough to behold their beauty. 

Dahlia Plant Care: Wait until green sprouts emerge from the soil before watering. Then water deeply 2-3 times per week. Daily if in containers. Fertilize every 2-3 weeks for containers and every 3-4 weeks for soil grown. Use fertilizers that have a lower nitrogen count, generally half the amount of the other two on the NPK ratio. After frost has turned foliage brown, dig up the tubers and store them for the winter. 

Dahlia Companion Plants: Geranium, Salvia
