Description

A bunch planted together in our trial ground last summer, and every time I walked past it, I felt like I could be snorkeling on a coral reef!

All dahlia flowers are edible, scatter their petals on salads for flavour, texture and colour.

This collection contains 1 or 2 tubers each of:
  • Dahlia 'Salmon Runner'
  • Dahlia 'Alfred Grille'
  • Dahlia 'Karma Sangria'
  • Dahlia 'Geri Scott'

This can be gift wrapped in our exclusive hessian sack, with ribbon and a Sarah Raven gift card. You will be able to add this to your basket once you begin the checkout process. To add a gift message to your order, simply fill out the details at the delivery stage of the checkout.

Please note: only items which are showing ‘in stock’ can be gift wrapped.

Care Tips

Support with a stout stick, tie in every couple of weeks. In the south you can mulch deeply and overwinter them in the ground, alternatively, lift and overwinter your dahlias frost free undercover.
