Laciniated · 4–6"PinkMingus DahliasUnited States

Mingus Anita P opens in a rich rose-pink with split, frayed petal tips that soften the edges of each head. Warm yellow tones pool near the center and wash outward into the deeper pink, giving the flower two distinct personalities depending on the light. Grown by the Mingus family in Vancouver, Washington, this variety holds a separate ADS registration from its base cultivar, making it a distinct entry worth tracking in the field.

Growing Mingus Anita P

Stake plants early in the season before stems start to lean. Pinch the center shoot above the third leaf pair to build a well-branched plant with more harvestable stems. Cut blooms as the outer ring of petals opens fully and place them in water immediately. Strip foliage that would sit below the waterline to extend their cut-flower life.

Spacing
Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking
Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
