Dahlia Babette | Ball Dahlia

Summer flowering bulb orders will be available to pick up starting: ___________________ at The Ranch. If your bulbs are shipping, they will ship at a similar time!

This darling ball-style pompon dahlia serves up dense, perfectly geometric 2- to 3-inch blooms in a luscious blend of rich plum-purple and velvety dark magenta. The tightly rolled petals recurve all the way back to form perfect, honeycomb-like spheres that pop like mini works of art against bright green foliage. Beyond its irresistible texture, 'Babette' is an absolute workhorse in the garden, producing an endless supply of long-stemmed blooms from mid-summer straight through fall.

• LIGHT: Full sun; partial sun
  
• WATER: Water deeply and thoroughly when soil begins to dry
  
• ZONE: Zones 8–11 (In Zones 3–7, dig tubers up after the first light frost and store indoors over winter)
  
• SIZE: 3-3.5 feet tall
  
• GROOVY TIP: Pinch out the main central growing tip when your 'Babette' plant reaches about 12 to 18 inches tall! Pinching encourages the plant to branch out into a bushier shape, giving you twice as many stems—and way more flowers to harvest for fresh indoor bouquets all summer long!
