Dahlia Decorative ‘El Santo’

Dahlia 'El Santo' has medium sized, double, decorative style flowers of glowing pink with yellow centres.

Dahlia ‘El Santo’ needs to be seen to be believed with its perfectly formed, medium sized, double flowers of luminescent pink petals emerging from contrasting lemon-yellow centres. Supporting stems reach up to 28 inches high. Blooms from summer to frost. Great in the mid to front of the border and perfect for the vase. Dahlia are hardy to the winter temperatures of coastal BC but not to the winter wet. Grow outside in locations that are dry in winter or lift and store in a cool, dry location indoors like everyone else does.
