Lee’s Punch Drunk Love (B Grade Tuber)

Meet Lee’s Punch Drunk Love! This gal checks all the boxes for me. First, she is a rooting machine. The easiest of all my dahlias to propagate, which is why I was able to plant so many of her this past season. My favorite quality of the 3-4 inch blooms are the petals. As the petals age, they become lacinated with little dark dimples near the petal splits. It’s such a unique trait of a dahlia, and I get comments on how attractive it is constantly. The color is a rosy sunset pink with a peach petal base and dark magenta accents. Great bloom connection and long, strong stems. Consistent bloomer all season long. She’s a keeper. plant height 5’. Hybridized by Lee Hemmings Carlton of Goldenrod Gardens and released in 2024.

B-Grade Dahlia Tuber: B-grade tubers are healthy, viable tubers that will grow and bloom true to variety. They may have multiple cosmetic imperfections, thin necks, runts, or have lost a little too much moisture. These tubers are fully plantable and will thrive for you, but did not meet our top-select standards for full price. B-grade tubers are normally tubers we would keep to plant ourselves, but we have extra and are selling at a significant discount. We will never send out a tuber that isn’t viable. There are no guarantees with B-grade tubers. Only purchase if you are comfortable with these conditions.
