Tatiana's Tips

Despite its delicate colour, Sweet Suzanne is surprisingly tough, handling heat and rain better than many pastel dahlias. Originally popularized through specialty growers in Europe, it quickly earned a place in designer palettes thanks to its creamy peach glow and early blooming habit.
Tuber clumps have fragile necks—prevent dehydration by overwintering the clumps intact and dividing before planting. Sweet Suzanne tubers sprout earlier than most varieties and may require potting up before you’re ready, making them perfect for propagation with cuttings.
