The Ultimate Cut Flower Surprise for Your Garden

Pre-order for dispatch end of February 2026.

The Dahlia 'Picking Garden Mix' is a specially curated selection designed for those who love to fill their home with fresh flowers. This value pack offers a delightful surprise mix of shapes, sizes, and vibrant colours—from bold reds and pinks to soft pastels and sunny yellows. It is the perfect "starter kit" for a dedicated cutting patch or for filling gaps in borders with a riot of summer colour.

Because this is a mixed collection, you get a wonderful variety of flower forms, which may include Decorative, Cactus, Ball, or Pompom types. Each tuber has been chosen for its vigour and flower power. Plant them together to create a dazzling, meadow-style display, or dot them around the garden for splashes of surprise colour. With this mix, you’ll have endless buckets of blooms to cut for bouquets from July right through to the first frosts.
