Dahlia - Islander - Vivid pink, great for screening and bouquets - Tuber - 1 pc

Dahlia 'Islander' is an excellent choice if you are looking for a striking plant to create a flowering screen or a seasonal hedge. Its very large, double flowers are an intense shade of pink, with a slightly darker centre that gives them added depth. Despite their substantial size, the blooms do not appear heavy, largely thanks to the lightly ruffled petal edges. This spreading variety performs very well when planted on its own as a bold specimen, but it is equally effective in denser groups in borders, especially alongside tall hollyhocks and phlox.
