Nijinksy

Nijinsky offers a nuanced transition into purple, with smoky tones that feel softer and more complex than a traditional, saturated hue. The color carries a subtle depth, making it especially useful when moving between pinks and deeper purples in a palette.

A strong and vigorous grower, it produces an abundance of blooms with consistent form. Its steady output and balanced color make it a reliable choice for both garden beds and floral work throughout the season.

What you will receive

Each listing is for one dahlia tuber.

Your tuber will be a healthy, individual tuber with at least one viable eye or clear evidence of viability appropriate to the season. As a living product, tubers naturally vary in shape and size.

Shipping information

Tubers ship in spring once weather conditions are appropriate for safe transit and planting preparation. Orders may ship in batches based on region and seasonal timing.

Please note that if your order includes multiple varieties, all tubers may ship together.

Growing notes

Dahlias thrive in full sun, fertile well-draining soil, and consistent watering once established. For best results, plant after danger of frost has passed and soil has begun to warm.

Nijinsky is a vigorous and highly productive grower, producing a steady supply of blooms throughout the season. Its strong stems and consistent output make it well suited for cutting and bouquet work. Regular harvesting encourages continued flowering.

Please note

Because tubers are perishable, seasonal products, all sales are final. If there is an issue with your order, please contact us within 5 days of delivery so we can make it right where appropriate.
