Description
Dahlia ‘Bacardi’ is a stunning decorative dahlia that brings a touch of tropical warmth to any garden, featuring vivid, bright pink blooms with soft, sunny undertones. Ideal for those seeking a bold statement, this variety blooms abundantly from midsummer until the first frost. Reaching a height of approximately 80-100 cm, ‘Bacardi’ is perfect for adding height and interest to borders and mixed flower beds.
What sets Dahlia ‘Bacardi’ apart is not only its striking flowers but also its attractive dark green foliage. The broad, deeply lobed leaves provide a lush backdrop, allowing the bright blooms to pop even more, adding depth and texture to the garden. The strong stems of this variety help keep the large blooms upright, ensuring they remain a standout feature even during summer breezes.
