Coseytown and The Work That We Do
Our investments into the cut flower and dahlia enthusiast community are compensated solely through the plants we propagate and sell directly to you and without your support it is not possible to do what we do
OUR COMMITMENT TO HEALTHY DAHLIAS
At Coseytown Flowers we are fully inspected and licensed by the State of Pennsylvania for the production and distribution of plant materials and seed. Our proactive management practices include disinfection using 10% bleach solution between every plant rotating snips. We have an expert’s eye and a ZERO tolerance policy for symptomatic plants. As a component of our disease management plan, our active pest management plan utilizes a variety of measures based on seasonal risk level with continual monitoring from first planting until final tuber harvest.
We test for common RNA and DNA dahlia viruses including TSWV, TSV, INSV, and DMV and make substantial costly recurring investments into ongoing proactive dahlia virus testing and research to create and utilize best practices in the responsible propagation of our plant stock. Recent investments into our virus testing and research program include 5-figures worth of direct cost investments exclusive of time, labor, and other indirect costs.

Meet Coseytown Lois Lane! This super dahlia is a dark purple similar to the popular dahlia Diva. True to many Coseytown varieties, Lois Lane blooms on strong stems above the leaf canopy, has a strong 45° blossom attachment, and is a good tuber producer. The petals fold back to the stem creating a stunning 360-degree view. Make sure you view the product video for a better look!
This dahlia is a seedling of Skipley Lois Jean and to honor the parentage the name "Lois" was retained. Coseytown Lois Lane was originally slotted for a 2023 New Intro, but she was so generous in the tuber department that I'm excited to be kicking things off ahead of schedule with a 2022 Limited Release!
