Arbatax dahlia bloom

The Dahlia Hub product image

Formal Decorative · 4–6"WhiteNetherlands

Arbatax is a formal decorative dahlia that opens 4–6" blooms in white. White florets open across the garden and catch pink along each rounded edge, so no two blooms wear the same wash of color. That painted rim comes from pigment that pools at the petal tips, deepening toward lilac-pink as the flower matures and cooling again in shade.

Growing Arbatax

Give Arbatax full sun and steady moisture, and pinch the growing tip early to bring on more branching stems. Stake as the flowers gain weight, since the pink edging shows best on blooms held upright and clean. Keep cutting through the season and you will pull fresh color from midsummer until frost.

Spacing
Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking
