Ball Dahlias
Ball-types last longest in the vase and look so cute when the flower petals reflex and form that perfect ball shape

Dahlia 'Sylvia' Pom Pon Bulb
The pink color of this ball dahlia is absolutely perfect
Dahlia Wizard of Oz
Cornel bronze is a long-lasting, very floriferous ball dahlia; I'm excited to grow this again this year!
Cornel Bronze - FIVEFORK FARMS
Like Cornel Bronze, but red
CORNEL - Swan Island Dahlias
I love the iridescent purple undertone on this deep burgundy ball dahlia
IVANETTI - Swan Island Dahlias
Perfect peach-pink color with a bit of purple in the middle
Dahlia Ball Jowey Winnie
Dinnerplate Dahlias
Dinnerplates are huuuge plants and flowers. Definitely stake these because they will fall over.
I love the rich purple color of this dinnerplate dahlia and it was super-productive in my garden last year
Dahlia Thomas Edison
I loved pairing these with Thomas Edison! Gorgeous pale, pale lavender and big, beautiful blooms
Shiloh Noelle Dahlia
I'm growing these this year because they are a child plant of Thomas Edison, which was one of my favorite dahlias to grow last year; plus they're gorgeous!

This dinnerplate dahlia is a popular one. It's huge and neutral-toned and just a stunner all around.
Dahlia 'Cafe Au Lait'
I love the peachy pink tones of this dinnerplate dahlia

Lavender-pink dinnerplate
Dahlia Dinnerplate Lavender Perfection
This is such a whimsical-looking dahlia; I cannot wait to see how it grows for me this year!

Dahlia Fubuki Sakura Fimbriata

Crazy Love Decorative Dahlia | American Meadows
Orchid Dahlias
Rolled petals of orchid-type dahlias form a starburst appearance that is really unlike other dahlias
I'm trying out this oddball this year; I was really drawn to the dark color of the petals and the weird shape of this type of dahlia!
Dahlia 'Verrone's Obsidian' - White Flower Farm
If all goes well with Verrone's Obsidian, I might try this one as well
HONKA
I love how these look like stars!
