'Happy Single® Flame' Single Dahlia makes a strong impression with bold red flowers atop nearly-black foliage. Dahlias in the Happy Single® series feature very dark foliage that contrasts with saturated flower colors to stand out in the garden. Single flowers feature broad petals around a golden yellow center, favored by bees and butterflies thanks to the easy access to nectar and pollen. Happy Single® Dahlias are compact, meaning no staking is needed, and making them a good fit for containers and small gardens. Dahlias are perennial in zones 8-10, but in cooler zones, tubers can be dug after frost comes, stored over winter, then re-planted the following spring. Grow Dahlias in a sunny spot, in average soil that drains well. Keep moisture consistent once they begin to grow and enjoy a non-stop color parade. 'Happy Single® Flame’ is a winner of the Royal Horticulture Society Award of Garden Merit.
