Description
Dahlia Painted Madam is a stunning decorative dahlia that lives up to its dramatic name with its one-of-a-kind, hand-painted appearance. Each creamy yellow petal is beautifully streaked and splashed with deep crimson, creating an artistic marbled effect that ensures no two blooms are alike. This unique quality adds an element of surprise and individuality to your garden.
Reaching a height of approximately 90–110 cm, Dahlia Painted Madam is supported by strong, upright stems, ensuring its exquisite blooms are well-positioned and elegant. The lush green foliage serves as a rich backdrop, allowing the intricate, bold detailing of the flowers to take centre stage. Flowering from midsummer to the first frost, this variety promises months of captivating beauty.
What makes Dahlia Painted Madam truly special is the unpredictable nature of its crimson streaks. Some flowers are adorned with bold, sweeping brushstrokes, while others feature delicate speckles, creating a dynamic and ever-changing display. This dahlia thrives in both formal and informal planting schemes, adding flair to borders, cottage gardens, or cutting beds. Its blooms are also highly coveted for floral arrangements, offering a vintage-inspired focal point.
