Mingus Randy Dahlia
The Mingus Randy Dahlia is elegance and drama wrapped into one flower. With blooms that often surpass 10 inches, this giant semi-cactus variety unfurls in a romantic blend of white and lavender, creating a soft watercolor effect in the garden. Its pointed petals add texture and movement, giving each bloom a sense of depth and life.
Introduced in 2004 and bred in the USA, Mingus Randy quickly became a favorite for both gardeners and exhibitors. Its reliable performance, strong stems, and striking pastel coloration make it equally at home in the flower bed, on the show bench, or in the vase. With its combination of size, form, and ethereal coloring, it has earned a reputation as a true collector’s dahlia.
Rarity & Companion Planting Tip
Mingus Randy is a beloved collector’s variety, admired for its soft coloring and enormous blooms. Pair it with deep purple dahlias to intensify its lavender undertones, or with creamy whites and blush pinks for a romantic, wedding-ready palette. Its giant blooms also make it an excellent contrast companion to smaller, ball-form dahlias, adding drama and scale to arrangements.
HOW IT WORKS |
This is a pre-purchase item as there is a limited number available.
Pot roots are grown in temperature-controlled beds that we nurture to encourage early sprouts. We then harvest and root the sprouts in a soilless medium held in a separate area where they are misted and fertilized at regular intervals. Six weeks later, rooted and growing, the cuttings you selected are then hardened off to make their journey home.
After the risk of frost in your growing zone, your cuttings will packaged carefully, shipped USPS Priority Mail, and will arrive at your door 1-3 days from the shipping date. You will receive a notification when we are preparing to ship.
Details and recommendations for that specific variety will be included with your shipment. Dahlia cuttings come packed in a soilless medium.
