Dahlia Neon Splendor

Dahlia Neon Splendor is a radiant dinnerplate dahlia that brings a bold yet refined energy to any garden. Its immense blooms, reaching up to 25cm in diameter, are a mesmerising blend of fiery coral-orange with golden-yellow centres, creating a glowing, almost luminescent effect that stands out in both sunlight and twilight. The petals are perfectly arranged in layers, giving the flowers a full, structured appearance while maintaining a natural charm.

This variety grows to a stately height of 100–120cm, with strong, upright stems that ensure its dramatic flowers are held high above its lush, mid-green foliage. The foliage itself is dense and vibrant, providing a striking contrast to the brilliant blooms. Neon Splendor flowers profusely from midsummer through to the first frost, delivering months of breathtaking colour that enlivens borders, cutting gardens, and larger containers.

What truly sets Dahlia Neon Splendor apart is its unique colour intensity, which seems to deepen and shift as the season progresses. In cooler weather, the coral tones take on a richer hue, while the golden centres glow brighter, giving this variety a dynamic, ever-changing appearance. Additionally, its blooms are surprisingly long-lasting in vases, making it a favourite for floral arrangements.

This dahlia’s robust stems and weather-resistant flowers make it a reliable choice for British gardeners, even in areas prone to wind or rain. It’s also a magnet for pollinators, attracting bees and butterflies with its vibrant display.

Supplied as premium quality tubers, Dahlia Neon Splendor is easy to grow and thrives in fertile, well-drained soil with full sun. Whether paired with deep purples for contrast or surrounded by softer hues for harmony, this variety guarantees a garden filled with splendour and joy.
