Planting & Care

Sow Kasagi Dahlia seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Use a well-draining seed-starting mix and lightly cover the seeds with about 1/4 inch of soil. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, and maintain a temperature of 65-75°F. Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before planting in the garden after the danger of frost has passed.

Plant dahlias in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow good air circulation. Water regularly, providing about 1 inch of water per week. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize monthly with a balanced fertilizer, but avoid excessive nitrogen, which can promote leafy growth at the expense of blooms. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. In cooler zones, dig up tubers after the first frost and store them in a cool, dry place for replanting next spring.
