Bountiful blooms in enchanting scarlet red hues adorn the dazzling Dahlia ‘Double Red‘. Available as a pack of 3 bulbs, they grow into a compact, bushy perennial with unforgettable red flowers that last through to the first frost.
With a profusion of flowers, they almost completely cover the dark foliage beneath making them the perfect feature in a container display adding colour to terraces, seating areas and entrances. The cascade of flowers and compact growth means they also work well in hanging baskets and window boxes for a long lasting, low maintenance burst of colour.
They will also thrive planted in beds and borders, and can create a magnificent edging when positioned at the front. These flowers also make an excellent addition to cut displays, adding a touch of luxury to admire.
When planted in a sunny, sheltered spot, in moist but free draining soil, they will happily grow with minimal care. Ensure you provide protection, or lift them, before the harsh winter weather, and they can be reused the following year.
