Germination

Sow Dahlia variabilis Mignon Rose seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last expected frost, using a well-draining seed starting mix. Press the seeds lightly into the surface and cover with a thin layer of soil, as they require some darkness for germination. Maintain a temperature of around 18 to 21°C (65 to 70°F) and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination usually occurs within 7 to 14 days. Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots, and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before planting them in a sunny, sheltered location after all danger of frost has passed.
