An exquisitely-formed Pompon Dahlia, our Bantling Dahlia offers magnificently true orange blossoms in the trademark pompon round shape. Measuring up to three inches across, these blooms are particularly distinguishable by their neat, orderly appearance and the geometric shape that they bring to the garden and vase. Be sure to plant Bantling in your cut flower garden because the more you cut from a dahlia, the more it will produce.

  • • Performs best in full sun, but light shade is welcome during the hot summer months
  • • Provide consistent moisture, do not allow soil to dry out
  • • Pompon dahlias are recognized for their precise and orderly form, which gives them a delicate and charming appearance

    Reconsider. Your other dahlias bloomed. Not sure what happened.

    Dahlia Tubers (Pompon) - Bantling

    Store owner replied: Hello Carolyn S. Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your experience. We are sorry this variety didn't bloom as expected, especially when your other dahlias were successfully flowering in the same garden. Bantling is generally a mid- to late-summer bloomer, and factors such as a slower start to the season, excessive nitrogen, insufficient sunlight, or environmental stress can sometimes delay flowering. However, the fact that your other dahlias performed well under similar conditions is helpful information, and we understand your disappointment with this particular plant. We are glad you reached out to our Customer Care team and that we were able to provide a resolution. Please know that we're always here if something you receive from us isn't thriving as expected. We stand behind our products and our Grow Guarantee and want you to enjoy the healthy plants and beautiful blooms that both you, and we expect from your garden!

    I was looking forward to this dahlia as the color is magnificent in the photos. I ordered and received 6 different dahlia bulbs and this was the only one that did not produce. The others are doing very well.
