Description

Let the bright and beautiful Dahlia 'Daisy Duke' sashay into your garden this summer, and you’ll be sure to raise a smile every time you catch sight of her. The plentiful flowers of this popular variety are compact and uniform in shape – featuring luscious pink tones with a splash of wine in the middle, nicely contrasted by a fresh green heart. When flowers open fully, they’ll glow like a tropical sunset in the late summer light – the involute, rounded petals showing off warm hues of coral, salmon and fuchsia.

At just 60-90cm tall, Dahlia 'Daisy Duke' is a short and sweet variety, with plenty of lush green foliage that will make a great filler in a flower bed of any size. It would even be ideal for container growing in small space – the dark stems are shorter and stockier than many varieties, meaning that the plant will self-support and staking isn’t required, when grown in a sheltered spot.

Dahlias in 60 seconds

Dahlias like full sun and a free-draining soil, and should be lifted and stored in winter, or at least protected with peat or straw. Dahlia flowers can range from 5 to 25cm in diameter and those magnificent larger-flowering dahlias might appreciate a little extra support with canes!
