Dahlias are at their peak of beauty. Available in virtually every color of the rainbow – red, yellow, orange, purple, pink and a vast array of bi-colors as well – you won’t be able to choose just one. Did you know? They will last longer if you “cook” their stems? Odd as it sounds, dahlias love a hot water bath. Just pour about 1” of boiling water in a heat safe vase, cut 2” from the flower stem and place the dahlias in the vase. Let them sit until the water cools to room temperature and then, drop them in your favorite vase. Of course, we take care of it for you – there is no need to do it twice. Once is just fine for these vibrant beauties.
