Description
Well bonjour to the dark, brooding, Dahlia 'Black Pierre', with its sumptuous, burgundy-red blooms: trés chic! This delightfully gorgeous, new ball dahlia looks like it’s just strutted off a paparazzi-filled, Parisienne catwalk and is sure to hit the headlines and set hearts a fluttering with its multitudinous, elegant, lollipop blooms bobbing across our borders and containers. As each perfectly formed, ball-like bloom of Dahlia 'Black Pierre' opens, a central green eye winks seductively, until the petals open fully, reaching approximately 7cm across.
Cut-flower enthusiasts across the land will be completely mesmerised by Dahlia 'Black Pierre' with its delicate, rounded blooms, which are smaller than their ball-type dahlia relatives. Dahlia 'Black Pierre' is set to become the belle of the ball, and a much-loved fashionista, that’s for sure. It makes a stylish statement planted en-masse or with red, orange, coral or green dahlias. Trés jolie, we think you will agree.
