Dahlia ‘Edinburgh’ – Purple - Red Double Blooms with White Tips - Oldboy&

Description

Dahlia ‘Edinburgh’ is a stylish, decorative dahlia renowned for its rich purple-red double flowers edged in crisp white tips. With neat, rounded blooms approximately 10-15 cm in diameter, it presents a layered colour effect that draws the eye. The foliage is mid-green, forming a tidy perennial clump. Flowering begins in mid-summer and continues until the first frosts, bringing strong colour to beds, borders, and containers.

This variety grows to about 0.9-1.0 m tall and thrives in full sun locations with well-drained, fertile soil. Regular deadheading helps maintain bloom production. In cooler climates, the tubers benefit from winter protection.
