Let the cheery blooms of Dahlia 'Hartenaas' (Dutch for ace of hearts) light up your summer garden—you just can’t help but smile when these pretty collarettes start to appear. It's like the sweetest summer captured in a single flower, with petals and collar in a joyful, sugary shade of pink. Pollinators will make a bee-line to the open flowers with exposed, nectar-rich, sunny yellow button centre—perfect if your gardening with wildlife in mind.

Like all dahlias, Dahlia 'Hartenaas' flowers repeatedly all summer long. Regular deadheading keeps it looking fresh and tidy, and encourages more blooms to grow. Such a generously-long flowering season is a real treat—you can rely on dahlias for a colour which lasts from summer right into autumn. Being a smaller variety, this dahlia is perfect showcased individually in a large container on your patio or catching the eye at the front of the border. Either way, 'Hartenaas' is sure to make you smile!
