This organic Dahlia “Bacardi” has a delicate appearance, but is anything but ordinary. The decorative flowers open in warm shades of pink and peach, with a deeper wine-red accent at the centre. It is precisely this colour gradient that gives each flower its character. Depending on the light and the stage of flowering, the shades may change slightly, ensuring the plant catches your eye time and time again.
Bacardi in the garden
Reaching a height of around 90 centimetres, ‘Bacardi’ looks lovely in the centre or at the back of a sunny border. Pair it with white, pale yellow and dark red flowers to create a warm, harmonious display. The refined colour also comes out beautifully amongst airy perennials and ornamental grasses.
Radiant, graceful, gorgeous
‘Bacardi’ is a robust and prolific dahlia that produces a steady stream of new flowers throughout the summer. Its sturdy stems and medium-sized flowers also make it ideal for cutting. In a bouquet, it blends easily with many other colours, from soft pastel shades to deep burgundy.
Enjoyment lasting into autumn
To enjoy organic dahlia flowers for as long as possible, it’s useful to remove spent blooms regularly. This gives the plant more energy to produce new flower buds, resulting in an even more abundant bloom. You can also cut a few stems to display indoors, bringing that summery feel into your home. All in all, ‘Bacardi’ is simply a superb dahlia that you won’t want to miss out on in your border.
