Description

A perfect dahlia for a container, covered in apricot to orange flowers, contrasting to the dark, crimson-green leaves. Marry this with Rhodochiton, trained up a wooden frame and an equally long and showy performing pelargonium, the brilliant-pink ‘Surcouf’. That’s what we’re planting for this summer.

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

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.
