Orange-red dahlia wins people's hearts
16 September 2011
During the four days of the Wisley Flower Show 2011, some 416 voting slips were collected for the ‘people’s choice’ of Dahlia from the trials on Portsmouth Field.
The three cultivars that received the most votes were;
- Dahlia 'Stadt Spremberg' (pictured above), a decorative type growing to 120cm (47in), with orange-red flowers.
- Dahlia 'Crystal Beauty', a small waterlily type with white, lilac-tipped flowers.
- Dahlia 'Jessica', a semi-cactus type with yellow, red-tipped flowers.
