Description

A true show-stopping dahlia and one of my long-standing favourites. Mixed with other dahlias or planted with veg, it looks superb with cabbages and Kale 'Redbor' and is the real show-stopper in the autumn Oast garden.

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.

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.
