Dahlia ‘Jowey Frambo’

A recent addition to the lauded Jowey series, Dahlia ‘Jowey Frambo’ bears exquisitely detailed pompoms in a fruity raspberry shade with a subtle hint of salmon. Each perfectly spherical flower is about 9cm in diameter. Pompom dahlias are more restrained than the flamboyant decorative types and their contrasting forms look fabulous when grown together. Like all dahlias, it’s great for cutting, with long, strong stems supporting the blooms.

Dahlias provide colour from July to October, just when the main flowering season of the garden begins to fade. They’re perfect for filling gaps, superb as cut flowers and easy to grow. Dot plant them in sunny borders or use them to add splashes of colour to patio pots. The tubers can be lifted after the first hard frosts of autumn and replanted the following spring for bigger, better displays each year.  

Height: 1m (39in). Spread: 60cm (24in).
