    Customer photo review of Dahlia Tubers (Decorative) - Creme de Cognac

    Big producer...but it is not the apricot the" cover photo" depicts at all. The color that it really is also doesn't really seem to blend well with other dahlias in a bouquet. Also, the cover photo you show pictures a lady with these huge blooms....when the plant says in description is only 4" (which it is)! You need to change the cover photo for this dahlia, I don't even think it is the same dahlia! I would appreciate my money back. I love thhe other dahlias I got from you, the collections of Pink Power House and Sweet Dream Mix are outstanding!

    The Creme do Cognac did wonderful in my central Oregon garden. Great plant, low growing so perfect for the front of a bed. The colors are beautiful and work perfectly as cut flowers. I have been enjoying them for weeks.

    Customer photo review of Dahlia Tubers (Decorative) - Creme de Cognac

    We planted 4 different varieties of dahlias this year, and these have performed the best. The color is beautiful, photos don’t do them justice! From afar they look more peach than they appear in the photos, but the color is very nuanced and just lovely. We live in 6b and need to lift dahlias for the winter. This year I planted the pots directly in the ground for easy lifting and they have thrived! (Google “Old House Gardens dahlias in buried pots”, learned that technique there.) Highly recommend!

    Customer photo review of Dahlia Tubers (Decorative) - Creme de Cognac

    I was pleased with the tubers . I start mine indoors due to my short growing season then plant outside. I had the plant in the ground by June and blooms by mid July. They were a shorter plant than the description, for me about 2 feet. And the stems were initially pretty short. As the season went on and I deeply cut , I got longer stems. Next year I will plant in front of my bed and use mostly as landscaping with the occasional cut bloom. The color was beautiful and true to the photo .

    Mine are about 20" or shorter and nowhere near the 40-48". They bloomed and the flowers are pretty, but the foliage looks as though it has mosaic virus.

    These Dahlias are absolutely beautiful! The colors are perfect for Fall. However, they are blooming much shorter than all of my other dahlias—they are less than 2 feet tall, which doesn’t work for cut flowers.

    I spent hundreds on dahlias and this was one of the varieties that just didn’t produce anything in the raised bed. It was disappointing as this was one of the colors I was most excited about.

    I ordered 6 different types of dahlias and a total of 12 tubers. Only 2 grew and they looked nothing like what I ordered.
