Description
Set yourself up for a summer surprise with every flower that opens on this extraordinary variety, Dahlia 'Rebecca’s World'. Laced with intrigue, not only because of the random colour spacings which make each new flower look different from the last, but also because they actually change colour as they mature. A combination of fruity cherry red petals with icy white, as the flower develops the colours miraculously switch, with the red maturing to white and white maturing to red. It’s beautifully bizarre!
For the cuttings patch, if you like your dahlia blooms to have lengthy, strong stems, you’ll be head over heels with the cut-flower harvest you’ll get from this bounteous beauty. And, if you grow your dahlias purely to enjoy to the full out in the garden, the gorgeous large-flowered Dahlia 'Rebecca’s World' will happily step right into the role.
