Description
Let Dahlia 'Frost Nip' sparkle in the summer sunshine! This aptly named dahlia is packed with gorgeous twirling, twisted and wayward petals, each with an ice-cool white edge which gleams in the sun, setting off its rich raspberry-pink colour beautifully. Each petal is uniquely marked with artistic strokes which define the intricate petal formation. You’ll be drawn in for a closer look to admire the fascinating detail; feel free to cut some flowers of Dahlia 'Frost Nip' and bring them indoors because they will continue to produce more blooms all through the season.
With its bold and unusual colour combination, Dahlia 'Frost Nip' stands out with impressively large flowers which typically measure around 20cm across. It produces its fabulously flamboyant flowers all through summer and into autumn providing they are regularly cut or deadheaded. It holds its flowers up well above the leaves, on beautifully contrasting dark plum stems which are a superb match for the raspberry-pink blooms. To get the very best out of Dahlia 'Frost Nip' and enjoy a continuous show of showstopping flowers over many months, give it a position in full sun, with free-draining soil.
