Dahlia ‘Honka Pink’

Product Details

The ‘Honka’ varieties are Orchid-form Dahlias, a type that exhibits open centers (allowing pollinator access, unlike many other Dahlias) and petals that roll up at the ends. Dahlia ‘Honka Pink’ is an especially striking specimen that comes on strongest late in the season – in our recent trials it took a while to find its stride but by the end of the season was flowering prolifically and drawing in lots of bees.

Dahlias are native to Mexico and South America, and hold their display in reserve for mid- to late summer and early fall. The genus offers incredible diversity of color and form and we offer dozens of varieties every year. Dahlias are perennial but not cold hardy – tubers can overwinter in the ground in Zone 8 or warmer; in colder climates tubers can be dug after frost and easily stored indoors over winter. Please note – Dahlias should be planted outside once the danger of frost has passed and soil temperature has reached approximately 60°. We ship tubers beginning in late March and they can be stored until planting time if necessary. For more information on growing Dahlias, click on the Growing Guide tab on this page.
