    Customer photo review of Dahlia Tubers - Border Mix

    About a foot tall, and they are pale pink with pale yellow. Hardly any of the bright pink/fuschia color advertised. I am getting quite a few blooms though even though we do t get much direct sun, less than 4 hours, in zone 6b.

    Store owner replied: Hello Camille. Thank you for writing in to let us know. We appreciate you sharing a photo of your dahlias and are glad to hear that it has been producing plenty of blooms, even with the limited sunlight. The flower shown is beautiful, but we understand your disappointment that the planting has displayed mostly pale pink and yellow tones rather than the brighter pink and fuchsia shades you were expecting. Dahlia colors can vary somewhat with temperature, sunlight, and bloom maturity, and lower light can also affect overall plant growth and flowering; however, these factors don't necessarily account for a mix consistently lacking the expected range of colors. We've shared your experience and photo with our Quality Control team, who are working directly with the grower that pre-packs these tubers for us to review the concern. We're glad we had the opportunity to provide a resolution and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We stand behind our products and value feedback like yours because it helps us work with our growers to maintain the quality and accuracy our customers expect!

    I would like to order more but it’s been 2 months since my last order that I still haven’t received

    I bought two bags of these border dahlias and received them in great shape this Spring. They are all blooming prolifically and the colors are beautiful. Will be ordering more!

    None of 10 came up. It was a wet spring but I have other dahlias that are thriving. I was excited but instead: Disappointed.

We greatly appreciate you bringing this to our attention as we strive to provide the best quality service and products to our gardeners around the country.

    I am a fan of Eden Brothers flower bulbs and it’s due to the great quality. Surprisingly only one of these border dahlias grew. I will dig them up and check for rot because I have never had an issue with broken tuber necks or rot from this company.
