Introducing the captivating 'Extase' Dahlia, also known as Pink Dahlia, a vibrant addition to any garden or container setting. With its stunning display, this dahlia variety bursts into bloom from early spring, gracing your outdoor space with an abundance of perfectly shaped flowers. Picture masses of 4- to 6-inch blooms, delicately two-toned in shades of salmon and apricot, adorning long, sturdy stems. These blooms are not just a treat for the eyes but also serve as a delightful invitation to butterflies and hummingbirds, enhancing the charm of your garden while also making for stunning cut flowers.

As a Dahlia hybrid, 'Extase' embodies the classic allure of its lineage, presenting a clump-forming perennial with an upright, compact habit. Its versatility knows no bounds; whether nestled in beds, positioned at the center of borders, or showcased as a striking standalone specimen, 'Extase' never fails to captivate.

To ensure optimal growth and performance, plant your 'Extase' Dahlia in sunny locations boasting fertile, humus-rich soil with excellent drainage, preferably sheltered from strong winds. This resilient plant can adapt to various soil types, including clay, loam, or sandy soils, and tolerates a wide pH range from neutral to acidic or alkaline. Throughout the growing season, maintain consistent soil moisture, avoiding any instances of drought. Encouraging a bushy growth habit is as simple as pinching out growing tips, while deadheading spent flowers stimulates continuous blooming.

While 'Extase' Dahlia thrives in Zones 3-7, it's worth noting that bulbs should be lifted and stored during winter in colder regions. This practice not only protects the plant but also ensures its longevity for seasons to come. Additionally, rest assured that 'Extase' stands resilient against heat and deer, offering a hassle-free gardening experience. However, please keep in mind that this plant is not pet-friendly.
