Dahlia 'Sandra'

New to us this season and we really like this dahlia.  Sandra is a beautiful pink ball dahlia that has really strong, long stems on nice foliage.  Related to the dahlia ‘Sylvia’ that is the orange color, sometimes this dahlia is known as ‘Pink Sylvia’, both dahlias are famous for their growth habit and long stems.  Outstanding cut flower and a good tuber producer too.

Growers Notes:

• Dahlias are planted in spring after the soil has warmed up to 60 degrees
• Plant when night time temperatures are consistently in the 50’s
• Plant around the same time you would plant corn, potatoes and other warm season crops
• Plant dahlia tubers in an area that receives 6-8 hours of sunlight per day
• No extra water until sprout is 5”-6” tall, normal spring rains will give all the moisture it needs
• After the dahlia sprout is 6”, deep soak every 2-3 days
