Dahlia 'Liquid Desire,' cultivated by DutchGrown, is a breathtaking addition to any garden, embodying elegance and vibrancy in every bloom. This standout collarette dahlia is known for its sumptuous petals that showcase an alluring gradient of deep magenta that fades into rich pink hues, creating a mesmerizing display that evokes the flow of liquid color. The velvety petals catch the light beautifully, making each flower a show-stopper that’s sure to turn heads. Perfect for gardeners who appreciate striking, bold floral displays, Dahlia 'Liquid Desire' grows to an impressive height of around 40 to 50 inches. Its robust stems hold the large blooms upright, ensuring they stay stunning even in breezy conditions. This makes it an exceptional choice for planting at the back of flower beds, where it can stand as a focal point, or for use in cutting gardens, where its long-lasting blooms make dramatic and luxurious arrangements. Blooming prolifically from mid-summer until the first frost, 'Liquid Desire' provides an extended season of captivating color and charm. It thrives in full sun and flourishes in well-drained, fertile soil, reflecting DutchGrown’s dedication to producing high-quality dahlias with unparalleled performance and beauty. To plant, tuck the tubers into the ground in spring after the last frost, at a depth of 4 to 6 inches, and space them 12 to 18 inches apart. Regular watering is essential to maintain moist soil (without waterlogging), and deadheading spent blooms will encourage continuous flowering throughout the season. In colder regions, digging up the tubers after the first frost and storing them in a cool, dry place ensures 'Liquid Desire' returns with its lush, captivating display year after year. This dahlia is a must-have for garden enthusiasts seeking to elevate their landscape with unparalleled color and elegance, showcasing DutchGrown’s commitment to superior floral beauty.
