KA® Rosie Jo Dahlia Cutting

KA® Rosie Jo my favorite dahlia of 2024. It’s a KA® variety, which means it was hybridized by Kristine Albright of Santa Cruz Dahlias® so it comes with a higher price tag than most other dahlias — but my god — she’s a stunner. 

She has long, strong stems that churn out waves of blooms all season long. The dark and smokey raspberry blooms usually are between 3 and 5 inches wide.

My favorite thing: The color and petal count on each bloom are phenomenal. This was also one of my most productive varieties that I grew.

Bloom size: Medium - 3” to 4”

Height: Tall — about 4’ to 5’ tall

Tuber rating: 10/10 - produces a lot of decent tubers

This listing is for one live dahlia plant, which should produce a small tuber clump by the end of the season.

(Please note: The photos of the plants are not of the exact product. They are examples of what a dahlia cutting will look like.)

About Dahlia Cuttings

Dahlia cuttings are another way to propagate dahlias. If cared for correctly (fertile soil, regular watering and regular harvesting) throughout the growing season, they will produce a small tuber clump that can be overwintered or dug and divided for dahlias the following year.

All dahlia cuttings purchased from the West Seattle Flower Farm will have at least three sets of leaves and have ample roots (which will develop into the dahlia tubers over the course of the season.) They will be hardened off (meaning I slowly introduced them to outside from my grow room over the course of a week) and ready for planting in your garden.

After transplanting to your garden, please check on them daily for at least a week to ensure the transplant remains healthy and the soil remains moist around the base of the plant.

About pick up

Currently dahlia cuttings are only available for pick up at the West Seattle Flower Farm location in the Highland Park neighborhood of West Seattle. I do not ship cuttings.
