We love the selection of bulbs available from A.D.R. The variety is great, the quality is excellent and the price is fair. However, the best part of working with A.D.R is the customer service from Chris, Walter and all of the team. They go out of their way to make sure ours needs are met.

Dahlia 'Monet' is a compact decorative variety with creamy-white blooms accented by pastel lilac tips. The flowers, reaching about 5 inches across, stand out against dark green foliage, creating a soft, elegant display. Growing up to 14 inches tall, it thrives in full sun with well-drained soil, making it ideal for beds, borders, patios, and containers. Blooming from midsummer until frost, it provides continuous color throughout the season. Hardy in USDA zones 8 to 11.

Planting: In spring, plant tubers 3 to 4 inches deep with the eye facing up, once soil has warmed to at least 60°F. Space 12 to 18 inches apart—Gallery dahlias are compact, making them ideal for containers and small garden spaces.
Location: Full sun (6–8 hours daily) is best. In hot climates, light afternoon shade helps prevent stress.
Soil: Fertile, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Enrich with compost or aged manure before planting.
Watering: Water deeply once or twice a week, keeping soil evenly moist but not soggy. Avoid watering until shoots emerge to prevent rot.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 8–10. In colder zones, lift tubers after frost and store in a cool, dry place.
Fertilization: Feed every 4–6 weeks with a balanced or low-nitrogen fertilizer. Too much nitrogen can reduce flowering.
Pruning: Pinch back when plants reach 8–10 inches tall to encourage bushiness. Deadhead regularly to extend bloom time.
Pest & Disease: Watch for aphids, slugs, and powdery mildew. Ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering.
Propagation: Divide tubers in spring, ensuring each has at least one viable eye.
