Dahlia Decorative Bacardi (2 Tubers)

A spectacular summer-time bloom, a pack of 2 Dahlia Bacardi tubers produces breathtaking displays of coral pink petals flushed with raspberry hues and rich magenta, which is topped off with a zesty lime coloured eye. With layers of pristine and neatly formed petals, the colours perfectly highlight its wonderful eye-catching silhouette.

Part of the premium bulb collection, this bloom grows on tall sturdy stems and creates dramatic colour-filled beds and borders, or pots and containers. It is highly floriferous and can be the star of the display or use it as vibrant underplanting for taller shrubs such as roses. With its simmering hot tones, this Dahlia pairs wonderfully well with peach and apricot-coloured flowers as well as rich dark chocolate blooms.

To get the best floral display, plant your dahlia in a sunny location in moist but well drained soil. After planting, water in well and monitor during the summer months. Aim for one good soak once a week to the base of the plant. Deadhead regularly to encourage more flowers through to the first frost.
