Description / Dahlia 'Arabian Night' Bulb

Dahlia 'Arabian Night', an early spring planting marvel, unfolds its beauty from midsummer to late fall, captivating with masses of large, up to 4-inch, dark velvety red—almost black—blooms. These fully double flowers showcase intricately incurved petals, accented by small green bracts, without a visible central disc, creating a stunning visual spectacle. Supported by long, sturdy stems, the 'Arabian Night' dahlia becomes a magnet for butterflies and hummingbirds, enriching your garden's ecosystem while offering outstanding cut flowers for your indoor spaces.

A testament to its versatility and beauty, this Dahlia hybrid, commonly celebrated as the 'Arabian Night' Dahlia, presents a clump-forming perennial habit that stands upright, making it an ideal candidate for small space and container gardening, as well as a striking addition to garden beds and borders. When planted en masse or grouped, 'Arabian Night' transforms into a breathtaking specimen, demonstrating its full glory.

Thriving in sunny locations, the 'Arabian Night' Dahlia requires fertile, humus-rich, well-draining soil, shielded from strong winds. It adapts well to various soil types, including clay, loam, and sandy soils, across neutral, acidic, or alkaline pH levels. Consistent moisture throughout the growing season ensures its vibrant display, while pinching out growing tips fosters a bushier plant. Regular deadheading not only extends the bloom time but also encourages a succession of blooms, keeping your garden in a perpetual state of wonder.

However, it's important to note that while the 'Arabian Night' Dahlia brings unparalleled beauty to any garden, it is not pet friendly, requiring mindful placement in homes with furry companions.

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.
