A key consideration when choosing the best types of dahlias is knowing they will last as long as possible. You need to make sure your favorites are up to the task of producing long-flowering displays.
There are over 40 species and thousands of dahlia varieties, plus countless hybrids. But if you are looking to grow dahlias specifically for their staying power, choose pompon dahlias, small and miniature ball breeds, and compact cactus varieties. Not only are these perfectly suited to gardens of any size, they are the best options for making the flowering season last longer.
