Description Fine Print
 
'Akita' is a spectacular decorative type Dahlia with huge double blooms up to 5 inches across in varying shades of reds, pinks and yellows with the undersides of the incurved petals tipped in white. The flower colours will change dramatically as they age on stems 36-48 inches high from summer to frost. Awesome in the border and in the vase. Dahlia are hardy to coastal BC's winter temperatures but not to winter wet. Protect from rain in free-draining soils, plant in pots that can be moved and protected, or lift and store in a cool, dry, frost free location. They are moderately deer resistant.
