Dahlias are hugely-popular summer flowers that come in a wealth of bright colors and shapes. They have become increasingly fashionable again in recent years and, if you want to add these bold blooms to your backyard, they can be grown from seed.
Traditionally, many people grow dahlias from tubers that are commonly planted in late spring and lifted again in fall to protect them over winter - though dahlias can overwinter outdoors in warmer climates.
