Costco members know the store for its substantial discounts on a wide range of products, from groceries to LEGO sets to seasonal decor. However, the plant section is a hidden gem, offering excellent deals for gardeners of all levels. Recently, Costco introduced a new floral delight that’s perfect for summer: beautiful dahlias priced at just $20 each.
Instagram content creator Shannon (@costco.so.obsessed) recently highlighted this find at a Los Feliz, California, Costco. Her video showcases vibrant dahlias in shades of orange, red, yellow, and purple, capturing their impressive size and beauty. “Beautiful dahlias at Costco,” Shannon wrote. “They are so pretty and large.”
For those interested in growing dahlias, The Spruce advises providing them with full sunlight and planting them in well-drained soil. It’s essential to water these plants at least once a week, increasing to twice a week during dry periods. Pet owners should note that dahlias are toxic to cats and dogs, so they should be kept out of reach of pets.
For those who can’t visit a local Costco store, dahlia bulbs are also available on Costco’s website. The online offer includes three dahlia bulbs for $39.99, pre-planted in an outer basket planter, and cultivated in Holland, renowned for its beautiful flowers.
One satisfied customer praised the ease and satisfaction of growing these dahlias in a five-star review: “Just add water and watch the beautiful flowers emerge. I’ve ordered several like this over the years and have never been disappointed!”
