Description / Dahlia 'Peaches and Cream' Bulbs
'Peaches and Cream' is a decorative dahlia that adds a dreamy touch to any garden or bouquet. Growing 36 to 48 inches tall, this stunning plant blooms from late summer through early fall. Its velvety, double flowers blend creamy white and peachy pink shades for a soft, romantic look. These sturdy-stemmed blooms are excellent for cutting and are especially striking in monofloral bouquets, making them a favorite among flower lovers.
The 'Peaches and Cream' dahlia is a clump-forming tender perennial (Zones 9-11) with an upright habit, perfect for borders, beds, or containers. Tall and graceful, this variety may require staking or caging to keep its blooms upright and looking their best.
These dahlias are simple to grow and thrive in sunny spots with rich, well-draining soil. If your soil is heavy clay or sandy, mix in organic materials like peat moss to improve its texture and moisture retention. Water thoroughly at planting and regularly throughout the growing season to keep roots hydrated. Pinch back stems at 8 to 10 inches tall, prune taller growth, and fertilize in spring and late summer to encourage fuller plants and more blooms. Mulch to keep the soil cool and moist, and divide tubers in the fall to enjoy them for years to come.
Plant 'Peaches and Cream' tubers in warm spring soil after frost danger has passed, spacing them 24 to 36 inches apart and planting 3 inches deep. For a jumpstart, plant tubers indoors 4 to 6 weeks before the last frost in small pots with potting mix. Transplant them outside when the frost is no longer a threat.
NOTE: In Zones 3-7, lift the tubers before the first frost and store them indoors in dry peat moss or vermiculite at 50°F. These dahlias can also be grown as annuals, bringing beauty to any garden, anywhere.
