    Dahlia Tubers (Pompon) - Hapet Compo FAQs

    When do I plant dahlia tubers?

    Think of planting your dahlias when you plant your tomatoes. Plant in spring after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed to at least 60°F. In warmer climates, planting can begin earlier than in regions with colder springs.

    What is a pompon dahlia?

    Pompon dahlias feature small, perfectly rounded blooms with tightly packed, inward-curving petals that create a neat, honeycomb-like appearance. Similar to ball dahlias but smaller and more compact, their charming, symmetrical flowers are especially popular for cutting gardens, bouquets, and floral arrangements.

    Do dahlias need staking?

    Staking is recommended, particularly in windy locations or when plants become heavily loaded with flowers. Providing support early helps protect stems as the plant grows.

    What is the difference between Pompon and Pompom dahlias?

    There is no difference between Pompon and Pompom dahlias. Both terms refer to the same small, spherical dahlia flower form with tightly packed, inward-curving petals. Pompon is the official horticultural classification recognized by the American Dahlia Society, while Pompom is a common alternative spelling.

    Will dahlias come back every year?

    Dahlias are tender perennials that can overwinter in the ground in sufficiently warm climates with good drainage. In colder regions, tubers should be lifted after frost and stored in a cool, frost-free location until spring.
