Plants to Avoid Growing Near Dahlias for Better Summer Blooms
Dahlias are beautiful summer flowers that require careful companion planting; avoid planting them near water-loving plants, certain vegetables like kale and potatoes, large shrubs like hydrangeas, zinnias prone to powdery mildew, and sunflowers, as these can hinder their growth through competition, pests, or disease. Proper spacing and choosing compatible plants can help dahlias thrive and produce stunning blooms.
