Anemone Flowering Dahlia 'Speech' declares itself as a bright, spirited and full of character addition to the summer garden. With vivid red petals that flare outward, each one edged with a delicate whisper of white - as if the flower had been dipped in light.
Unlike fully double dahlias, powder puff dahlia ‘Speech’ holds its face openly, inviting bees while showing off every curve and quill of its anemone-style center. The result is a flower that is both dramatic and intricate, bold from a distance and mesmerizing up close.
Tall, sturdy stems reaching a height of 100cm and blooms measuring 12 cm across, they thrive in rich soil, and an application of well rotted manure. Flowering from mid summer to late autumn.
de Jager's Dahlia Anemone Flowering 'Speech' top size, top quaility tubers are supplied polythene bags, in which they may be safely kept until planting time, stored in a cool place.
