Conjure up your very own summer heatwave with this sizzling dinnerplate Dahlia 'Dazzling Magic'. Throwing out blooms you could bask in - huge, petal-packed and fiery. Opening from large buds, heavily carmine in colour at first before unfurling more and more petals which become increasingly gold flushed with age, like suns of bicolour beauty. Thriving in borders in sun or partial shade, you can use this generous variety to illuminate various parts of the garden.

Combine Dahlia 'Dazzling Magic' with deep red or near-black dahlias for a hot lava-like display, or mellow it with cream and apricot shades. If you like the tropical look, make a feature of it among lush foliage plants. With strong stems and long-lasting colour, these big blooms make an amazing cut flower too!
