What's New?
NEW FOR 2007:
The new
Dark Angels Series is a bronze leaf series of
dahlia for 4" to 4.5" pots. They flower profusely with anemone-type
flowers, with wonderful contrast from leaves and flowers. Bright
single flower ideal for staggered cropping.
We continue to see a sales increase on every
variety in the Gallery Dahlia series. Matisse, Rubens and Sisley
along with Cezanne, Leonardo, Singer and Vincent can be used in a
4.5” to 5” program as well as a 6” /1 gallon to a 10”/2 gallon
program. Art Deco and Art Nouveau have won national recognition by
US Dahlia societies. Since there are 19 varieties available in this
series, there seems to be something for every grower. For the fifth
year we are seeing Gallery Dahlias being used for early, mid and
late season sales. Over 30% of our Gallery Dahlia sales occur from
May 1 through June 20. This continues to be a great opportunity for
growers to extend their season. Please note that we are offering an unrooted Gallery Dahlia program.
The dahlietta program continues to grow,
especially when growers finish rooted cuttings in 4” and 5” pots.
The self-branching characteristics and rapid blooming allow for a
quick turnover. These beautiful dahliettas, which finish on an
average of 7 weeks from a rooted cutting, are not only stunning but
very profitable.
The Happy Single bronze leaf dahlia series is a
tuberous type from the breeders of the Gallery Dahlias. The ‘Happy
Single’ dahlias bloom profusely and have many anemone type flowers.
They can be sold in 6” to 12” pots, used in landscaping and for
borders. Two new varieties have been added to the series – Flame, a
combination red with a yellow throat, and Wink, which is pink with a
magenta eye.
