With vigorous growth and a profusion of flowers, Dahlia ‘Purple Explosion’ is the perfect choice for adding impact and drama to summer displays. Sold singly, it grows huge purple and white fully double, ruffled flowers that add effortless beauty and charm to admire.
Loved for its floriferous nature, the purple petals are streaked with white and get paler towards the centre to creates an explosive effect. The unique colour combination of the blooms makes them a wonderful addition to a large pot or container so you can position your dahlia to suit your style. Or is the perfect addition to a mixed display as the eye-catching and long-lasting central feature. With such magnificent blooms, they also make an excellent cut flower to enjoy around the home as well.
Reliable and easy to grow, these flowers will return year after year. To ensure you get the best display of flowers, plant your tuber in a position with full sun, in any moist but free draining soil. Remove any spent flower heads to encourage new buds to form and add a layer of protection in winter.
