Dahlia 'Venetian'
Large, beautifully formed blooms in rich crimson-red tones bring warmth, drama and elegance to the garden from summer through autumn. The densely layered petals create a sumptuous decorative flower form, giving each bloom remarkable depth, texture and visual impact.
Carried on sturdy stems above lush green foliage, the flowers stand out beautifully in mixed borders, cottage gardens and dedicated cutting gardens. Their deep colouring provides striking contrast with lighter flowering perennials and ornamental grasses, while their long-lasting blooms make exceptional additions to fresh floral arrangements.
Thriving in a sunny position, it performs best in fertile, well-drained soil with regular watering during active growth. Regular dead-heading encourages repeat flowering and helps maintain an extended display throughout the warmer months.
Growing approximately 90-120cm tall and 60-90cm wide, it provides excellent height and structure without overwhelming neighbouring plants. Easy to grow and highly rewarding, it delivers months of spectacular colour and abundance, making it a standout feature in both traditional and contemporary garden settings.
