Flaming red, orange and yellow colours mix and mingle to give a sense of spice and heat to your planting from June to October. The 'XXL' range of dahlias are known for their large flowers and a generous, repeat flowering habit so will continue to perform for up to 4 months if diligently deadheaded.An exuberant introduction to a container or border, all you need to do is ensure that you plant (or site) Dahlia XXL 'Tabasco' in a spot where their astonishing hues can be fully appreciated. Oh, and remember to stake them if they are in an exposed spot too.Dahlia XXL 'Tabasco' is a half-hardy perennial which will need to be lifted and stored over winter for blooms to return the following year.
