Dahlia Wizard of Oz Pompon Dahlia Bulb

Enjoy the enchanting allure of Wizard of Oz Dahlia, a delightful pompon dahlia variety that graces gardens with its captivating charm. Plant these beauties in early spring, once the thread of frost is over, and from midsummer until the gentle touch of fall frost, watch them unfurl their mesmerizing 3-inch spherical blooms. Adorned with petals delicately rolled in gradient pink hues, these flowers stand as a testament to nature's artistry.

Upright upon sturdy stems that defy even the rain's persistence, Wizard of Oz pompon dahlias beckon the winged wonders of the garden — bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds — drawn by the sweet nectar and pollen-rich bounty. Revel in their prolonged bloom, for these darlings grace late-season bouquets and floral arrangements with their enduring splendor. And here's a secret whispered by the petals: the more you snip the deadheads, the more the plant will bloom.

A darling Dahlia hybrid, lovingly dubbed pompon dahlia, Wizard of Oz boasts a clump-forming habit that rarely bends, sparing you the fuss of staking. Whether nestled in a cozy container or adorning your garden beds and borders, these blooms steal the spotlight, particularly when clustered together.

For optimal growth, seek sunny to partly shady spots with fertile, humus-rich soil that drains like a dream, shielded from the brunt of strong winds. Fear not the soil's texture or pH, for Wizard of Oz dahlias graciously accommodate clay, loam, or sandy soils, regardless if it is acidic, alkaline, or neutral. Keep them watered during the growing season, never parched, and don't shy away from pinching those growing tips to foster lush bushiness. Bid farewell to spent blooms through deadheading, and watch as new buds emerge, eager to paint the garden anew.

Dahlia Wizard of Oz: where elegance meets resilience, where grace dances with vigor, and where every soft pink petal tells a tale of timeless beauty.
