Description
Fall head-over-heels for this heartbreaker, Dahlia 'Crazy Love'. Whorls of white petals will capture your attention, a close inspection reveals a soft violet blush, violet outlines and evidence of a kooky wild side, with some untamed ragged petals. The petal-packed flowerheads have a cushiony softness which is just irresistible. You may need to snip a few for a vase, but thankfully, in true dahlia style, it’s free-flowering nature means that more will grow to replace them—so go ahead!
Among the rainbow of dahlia varieties on offer, it’s good to have some which aren’t so loud. For Dahlia 'Crazy Love', poise and beauty just come subtly and so effortlessly. Try combining with plummy purple, pink or pale gold varieties for a gorgeous contrast, or let this throw a cheeky hint of mauve into a white garden. Plant this dahlia in borders (middle or back) or in a large patio container and enjoy blooms from mid-summer to the first frosts.
