Dahlia - Penhill Watermelon - Salmon show, star of summer bouquets - Tuber - 1 pc

Dahlia 'Penhill Watermelon' is a variety with very large, fully double flowers in a warm salmon-pink shade. Its broad, slightly twisted, irregularly arranged petals give the huge flower heads a loose, ruffled look. As it is quite a tall plant that produces strong, densely leafy stems, it is best given a prominent position at the back of a border. It flowers for a long period and reliably throughout the second half of summer and into autumn.

Use
