Dahlia ‘Hollyhill Spiderwoman’

Description

Bonkers, flamboyant, and eccentric are just some of the words used to describe the wonderfully weird flowers of Dahlia ‘Hollyhill Spiderwoman’. Measuring a whopping 15cm across, the blooms of this cactus-flowered dahlia are a deep, magenta-purple, each petal tipped in white and seeming to point in whichever direction it pleases. Truly fabulous. Why conform to the norm when there are horticultural treats like Dahlia ‘Hollyhill Spiderwoman’ to be had?!

We recommend planting in groups of five or more to make a real visual impact, and, of course, to allow plenty of spares for the vase. Like all dahlias, Dahlia ‘Hollyhill Spiderwoman’ makes an excellent cut flower, and in fact, rather wonderfully, the more you pick the more it flowers! Try to resist the urge to pick too early though, as, unlike most other flowers, dahlias don’t tend to continue opening once they’ve been cut.
