Dahlia Flower Types: A Guide to Groups and ClassificationDahlias are beloved by gardeners and florists for their large array of glorious colors and delightful flowers that range from miniature pompoms to giant dinnerplates!
Flowering from midsummer until the arrival of frost, they add fresh beauty to beds, borders, containers, and window boxes through the dog days of summer – just when other plants start to wear out from summer’s heat.
But with over 57,000 registered cultivars worldwide, choosing a selection for your garden can be a challenge.

The American Dahlia Society (ADS)categorizes dahlias into three groups on the basis of color, form (or flower type), and size.
In our guide to growing dahlias, we cover how to cultivate these beauties. In this guide, we’ll take a look at the different classifications to help you choose the type that’s right for your garden.
Here’s what I’ll cover:
ColorThe ADS Color group lists 15 distinct shades or color combinations.
Bicolor (two distinct and clearly separated colors) Bronze Dark blend (blends of dark hues) Dark pink Dark red Flame Lavender Light blend (blends of lighter tints and pastels) Orange Pink Purple and Black Red Variegated (two or more colors with dots, splashes, or streaks) White YellowWith every color available except true blue, you’re sure to find just the right shade for your garden palette.
FormThere are also multiple flower types in the Form group, with different petal structures and bloom shapes.
1. AnemoneAnemone (AE) types are distinguished by at least one row of evenly spaced, flat ray petals surrounding a vivid, and often contrasting, pincushion center
