Dahlia seeds mix of colours from cut flower varieties

Dahlias from seed are unpredictable and can vary greatly from the parent plant. These seeds are open pollinated from my dahlia farm where I grow every colour dahlia, meaning you never know what you could get. You can create your own brand new variety. The seeds have been saved from a mix of giant dinner plate varieties, balls, cacti, stellar and stunning decoratives in all sizes, they are all cut flower varieties. Growing from seed is how you produce new dahlia varieties, they will not be the same as the parent plant, however they could inherit some qualities of the parent plant. I have included just a few photos of some seedlings I have grown from my dahlia seeds. Dahlias from seed will produce tubers in the first year which will be an entire new variety. New varieties are usually grown for 3 seasons to test stability and quality of the blooms, before they are named and then released. Dahlia seeds are incredibly labour intensive to save, it is a very long and fiddly process, each seed has been grown, selected, saved, dried, sorted and checked for viability by myself. Dahlia seeds germinate at all different times, some take much longer than others, some can germinate in 2 days others take a month in the same conditions.
