The Dahlia 'Living in Harmony' Mix is a thoughtfully curated pairing designed to bring a sense of serene elegance and sophisticated contrast to the summer garden. This mix features a perfectly balanced blend of two standout varieties: the ethereal Dahlia 'Mingus Randy' and the pristine Dahlia 'Mt. Tacoma'. Together, they create a soft, cool-toned palette of lavender-pink and snowy white that seems to glow during the "golden hour" of late afternoon.

This combination is specifically designed for gardeners who want high-impact, large-scale blooms with complementary textures. While 'Mingus Randy' provides intricate, laciniated (fringed) petals and a splash of color, 'Mt. Tacoma' offers the classic, clean structure of a double peony-style bloom.

Included Varieties:

  • Dahlia 'Mingus Randy': A spectacular dinner-plate variety featuring oversized, 8-inch blooms. Its unique "fimbriated" or fringed petal tips give the flowers a fluffy, delicate appearance. The color is a soft lavender-purple that fades to a creamy white center.
  • Dahlia 'Mt. Tacoma': A sophisticated semi-cactus to peony-style dahlia known for its multi-layered, pure white petals. Its uniform, bright white blooms act as a luminous "anchor" in the mix, making the lavender tones of its partner variety pop.

Quick Facts:

  • Foliage: Lush, dark green pinnate leaves that provide a heavy, verdant backdrop for the light-colored blooms.
  • Flowers: A mix of 6-8 inch "Dinner Plate" and decorative double blooms in shades of lavender-pink and pure white.
  • Light: Full Sun is required for sturdy stems and maximum bloom production (at least 6-8 hours daily).
  • Growth Habit: Tall and vigorous; these dahlias typically reach 36-48 inches tall.
  • Hardiness: Hardy in USDA Zones 8-11. In cooler zones (3-7), tubers must be lifted and stored indoors for the winter after the first frost.
  • Landscape Use: Exceptional for the back of borders, "cutting gardens" for high-end floral arrangements, and cottage garden themes.

Pro Tip: Because both varieties in the Living in Harmony Mix produce large, heavy flower heads, staking is mandatory. Install sturdy stakes or a "tomato cage" at the time of planting to prevent the hollow stems from snapping during summer storms.
