Dahlia Patches

Dahlia 'Patches' is a breathtakingly unique, multi-colored dahlia that adds vibrant energy to any garden. The large, 8-inch blooms are primarily fuchsia with striking white tips, creating a bold and eye-catching "crazy-quilt" effect. As the flowers mature, the outer layer of petals transitions to a rich purple hue, adding depth and dimension to its already dazzling appearance. This dynamic color combination makes 'Patches' an exceptional choice for adding bold, dramatic flair to your outdoor space.  Standing tall at approximately 4.5 feet, this dahlia thrives in sunny garden beds, borders, and patio containers, blooming abundantly from midsummer until the first frost. Its sturdy stems provide excellent support for its impressive, heavy blooms, though staking may be necessary to prevent breakage. To ensure vibrant, continuous flowering, plant 'Patches' in well-drained, fertile soil and provide consistent watering. Regular deadheading will keep the plant looking its best and encourage more blooms throughout the season.  Perfect for creating standout garden displays, Dahlia 'Patches' is also a showstopper in floral arrangements. The long-lasting, multi-colored flowers bring bold beauty indoors, making them ideal for cutting gardens. With its ever-changing hues and prolific blooming habit, this dahlia is a favorite among gardeners and floral enthusiasts seeking a plant that delivers stunning visual interest and timeless appeal.
