If you are looking for a dahlia with grandeur and a host of ornamental features to admire, then look no further than Dahlia ‘Penhill Watermelon’, which produces spectacularly large, ruffled flowers that blend peach-pink hues, with streaks through each petal.
Each flower grows up to an incredible 27cm in diameter. This combined with a floriferous nature means the effect is a striking cascade of blooms that repeats from mid-summer through to autumn. Growing on tall and upright stems that reach up to 110cm in height, it makes the perfect addition to the back of a border or mixed flowerbed, adding structure to the display. With a profusion of glorious florist quality flowers, there will be more than enough to enjoy in cut flower displays around the home as well, which has the added benefit of encouraging new buds to form.
Low maintenance and easy to grow, this dahlia will flourish with minimal care and return year after year with its showstopping display of flowers. Remember to regularly deadhead the spent blooms and provide a layer of protection from the harsh winter weather.
