Dahlia Vancouver

Dahlia Vancouver, Huge open bowls of lilac-purple touched frosty-white at the petal's tips

One of the best and most intriguing of the purple-toned dahlia varieties; much appreciated by flower arrangers but also a delight in the garden. Perfect for growning in groups in dedicated beds or used in mixed plantings with other perennials. Flowers measure 15-20cm – removal of the side buds yields even larger flowers. As a border plant the colour effect is most unusual. In windy situations support will be needed. Height 100cm.

Suggestion: Liatris spicata … complementing the dahlias with its similar colour but contrasting form …
Suggestion: a pairing with the white cactus dahlia My Love creates wonderful garden pictures.
