Dahlia Downham Royal

Dahlia Downham Royal is a captivating Miniature Ball-type dahlia that adds a touch of elegance to any garden. Its 3-inch, fully double blooms feature a rich, iridescent burgundy color with a subtle violet center, creating a striking contrast. Standing at 3.5 to 4 feet tall, this variety is perfect for garden borders, containers, or as a cut flower. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, blooming from midsummer to the first frost. Plant tubers in spring after the last frost, spacing them 16-20 inches apart. Regular deadheading encourages continuous blooming throughout the season. In colder regions, dig up tubers after the first frost and store them in a cool, dry place until spring replanting.
