Golden, fluffy centers surrounded by creamy white petals give Dahlia ‘Freya’s Paso Doble’ its irresistible charm. This award-winning anemone-form dahlia produces beautifully textured, 4–5-inch blooms with a cheerful combination of soft ivory petals and sunny yellow centers. Its relatively compact growth habit makes it a versatile choice for smaller gardens, mixed borders, and large containers, while its accessible central florets attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators.
A recipient of the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, Freya’s Paso Doble combines ornamental beauty with dependable garden performance. Its unusual flower form adds texture and dimension to garden arrangements, making it a delightful choice for gardeners who love unique dahlias.
Growing Tips
Plant Freya’s Paso Doble dahlia tubers in spring after the danger of frost has passed and soil temperatures reach approximately 60°F. Choose a sunny location with fertile, well-draining soil. Avoid excessive watering before shoots emerge, as dormant tubers are susceptible to rot in saturated conditions.
Pinch young plants when they reach 10–12 inches tall to encourage branching and additional blooms. Deadhead regularly to promote continuous flowering from summer until frost.
In colder climates, lift and store tubers in a cool, frost-free location for replanting the following spring.
Growing Tips
Plant your Freye’s Paso Doble dahlia tuber in spring after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Choose a sunny location with excellent drainage, and provide support early if needed.
Pinch the growing tip when plants reach approximately 12 inches tall to encourage branching and additional flowering stems. Harvest blooms regularly and deadhead spent flowers to keep your plants producing.

That said, we reserve the right to refuse service, cancel orders, or void guarantees if a customer engages in disrespectful behavior. Over the years, we’ve seen too many growers face devastating challenges because of impatient or unfair actions, like airing complaints publicly on social media before giving the business a chance to address them.
Here’s the deal: If customer service matters are taken public before we’ve had a chance to help, we may choose to walk away and void guarantees. Likewise, if we see posts that are intentionally damaging or rude behavior toward other growers in the community, we reserve the right to decline your orders altogether.
We’re all in this together, so let’s keep it kind, constructive, and focused on growing beautiful things. 🌱
Grow & Care
Grow & Care
Dahlias are tender perennials, vigorous and fast growing. Dahlia tubers must be lifted for the winter from the ground in zones 7 and lower.
Planting:
Dahlias require soil that drains freely. Clay soil should be amended. Planting in raised beds can help alleviate moisture concerns. Tuber loss due to moisture rot is the leading cause for plant loss.
Plant 6" deep. Dig hole at least twice the width of your tuber to reduce soil compaction.
Label and stake your Dahlia at planting. Tubers do not need to be watered unless you are dealing with especially dry conditions. Whatever Mother Nature provides will be enough.
Care:
When Dahlias reach 10-12", the center tip should be pinched. This will create a bushier plan and yield more blooms. Without pinching, the plant will grow one tall, thick central stalk.
Your Dahlias will bloom from mid-summer until frost. Keep spent blooms trimmed and you'll enjoy repeat blooms all season long.
