About -

Elevate your garden’s grandeur with Richgrow Seeds Dahlia Open Pollinated Seeds, a non-GMO, heirloom variety (Dahlia pinnata), ideal for home gardeners seeking spectacular, showy blooms at an unbeatable price! Known as Garden Dahlia, this variety produces large, vibrant flowers, measuring 5–15 cm across, in shades of red, pink, yellow, white, purple, or bicolor, in forms like single, double, or pompon, perfect for beds, borders, containers, or premium cut flowers, blooming from 12–16 weeks after sowing through summer to fall. These nectar-rich blooms attract pollinators like bees and butterflies, enhancing garden vibrancy. The bushy, tuberous plants, growing 30–120 cm tall depending on the cultivar, are resistant to pests like aphids and diseases such as powdery mildew, thriving in warm climates, with optimal sowing in spring (March–May) across Pan-India, particularly in Maharashtra, Karnataka, and West Bengal, as aligned with prior sowing discussions (April 10, 2025). Sow 2–3 seeds at a 0.5–1 cm depth in well-drained, fertile loamy soil (50% garden soil, 30% compost, 20% sand, pH 6.0–7.5) under full sun (6–8 hours daily), spacing 30–60 cm apart in rows 60 cm wide; achieve 85% germination within 10–20 days at 20–25°C. Maintain moist soil with regular watering (1 liter per plant every 2–3 days), deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering, and fertilize with organic compost or a balanced fertilizer every 3–4 weeks; use neem oil for pests like spider mites or slugs. Pinch plants at 15–20 cm tall to encourage bushiness and stake taller varieties, with excellent durability for cut flowers. Dig up tubers after foliage dies back for winter storage in frost-prone areas. Store unopened packets in a cool, dry place for up to 3 years. Available in Kitchen Garden Packet (KGP) (50–100 seeds), Standard Packet, Professional Pack (200–250 grams), or custom bulk orders, all in eco-friendly, resealable, moisture-proof, UV-protected packets with an 85% germination rate, designed for your sustainable vision at www.richgrowindustrialcorporation.com, reflecting your eco-friendly, customer-centric brand with nature-inspired packaging (green, brown, white).
