For gardeners in Zones 3-7, winter care involves lifting and storing the bulb to safeguard its splendor for seasons to come. Please note, however, that while Dahlia Go Go Speckled thrives in the warmth, it is not a friend to our furry companions. Nevertheless, its resilience shines through, showcasing remarkable heat tolerance that ensures its allure persists even in the hottest of summers. Whether adorning your garden beds or gracing your indoor arrangements, Decorative Dahlia Go Go Speckled is a true delight for the senses.

Dahlias come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, and colors. Dahlias are grown from tubers, which are similar to bulbs, so they're easy to plant. Follow our expert's advice on how to plant and care for dahlias in our Dahlia Care Guide. To learn more about dahlias, read our blog All About Dahlias.

NOTE: In Zones 3-7, the bulbs will need to be lifted before the first frost and overwintered inside. However, dahlias can be grown as annuals in all Zones.
