A Hot Pink Beauty with a Creamy Glow
Pre-order for dispatch end of February 2026.
The Dahlia 'Miss Delilah' is a vibrant decorative variety that steals the show with its bold, eye-catching colour. The large blooms are a stunning shade of deep fuchsia-pink, which gently fades into a soft, creamy-white centre. This beautiful gradient gives the flower an inner "glow" that looks absolutely spectacular in the sunshine.
Known for its robust and sturdy nature, 'Miss Delilah' is one of the best dahlias for cutting. Its strong stems hold the heavy flowers upright with ease, ensuring they look perfect in a vase for days. Whether you are looking to brighten up a dull corner of the garden or create a vibrant pink-themed border, this reliable and floriferous variety is a perfect choice.
