Water: Dahlia 'Karma Sangria' requires ample water due to its large leaves but is susceptible to root rot from overwatering. Water promptly during droughts and ensure good drainage in rain. Early seedlings need less water, increasing during late growth. Water preferably at dawn or dusk.

Fertilize: Dahlia 'Karma Sangria' prefers fertile soil and requires liquid fertilizer every 10-15 days during early growth. Use nitrogen-rich fertilizers initially, transitioning to phosphate-potassium later. Stop fertilizing when flower buds show color, and avoid fertilizing in high temperatures. Leaf symptoms indicate fertilizer levels.

Pruning: Dahlia 'Karma Sangria' boasts vibrant blooms and lush foliage, ideal for gardens. Prune in early spring and pinch spent flowers for continuous flowering. Thinning the center improves air circulation, reducing disease risks. Regular pruning enhances shape and vigor, ensuring a stunning display throughout the growing season.

Propagation: Propagation of dahlia 'Karma Sangria' can be achieved through root division, cutting, or sowing. Root division is easy, with high survival rates when performed in early spring. Cuttings root faster at temperatures above 25℃, taking about one week to root and 15 days to transplant. Sowing leads to blooms in 1-2 years.
