Bonesta Dahlia Plant

The Decorative Dahlia, 'Bonesta', offers white blooms that are striped with pink around each petal. The flowers can grow up to 4 inches in diameter and sit atop tall elegant stems.

Dahlia Plant Care: Wait until green sprouts emerge from the soil before watering. Then water deeply 2-3 times per week. Daily if in containers. Fertilize every 2-3 weeks for containers and every 3-4 weeks for soil grown. Use fertilizers that have a lower nitrogen count, generally half the amount of the other two on the NPK ratio. After frost has turned foliage brown, dig up the tubers and store them for the winter. 

Dahlia Companion Plants: Geranium, Salvia
