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.
Our team will dig the Dahlias in December, and divide them in January and February. Our tubers will ship in late March or early April depending on your growing zone. Our growing team recommends late March planting for our Alabama growers. Due to weather and Department of Agriculture requirements, we are unable to ship tubers early and our tubers are only available to ship within the United States.
Details and recommendations for that specific variety will be included in each bag. Dahlias come packed in peat moss.
