Procyon Dahlia Description
Brighten up your flower garden, borders and vases with the gorgeous blooms of this beloved dahlia variety. The colourful petals are canary yellow tipped in radiant red, giving these 6–7" flowers the appearance of being lit from within. You won't believe the energy they will provide not only to your summertime landscape but also to your bouquets, because Procyon is excellent as a cut flower. The fully double blooms retain their brilliance even under long periods of direct sunlight. Deer tend to avoid eating most dahlias, including this one.

Dahlia Tips & Growing Instructions
In areas with winter freeze, carefully dig the tubers in fall after the frost kills the foliage. Cut the stalk approximately 6" above the tuber. Dahlias should be dried for only a couple of hours before storing in plastic-lined shallow boxes with a blanket of vermiculite or peat moss. Hardy in Zones 8-10.
