Description
A vibrant Australian Waterlily dahlia, Wakefield Samba produces beautifully formed blooms in striking shades of rich red with a bright golden-yellow base. The colour combination can vary between blooms, creating a lively and eye-catching display throughout the season.
Wakefield Samba is a prolific bloomer on a smaller-sized plant, with excellent stems that make it particularly useful as a cut flower. It performed well in the Trial Garden and has proven itself across the eastern states, although it can be sensitive to extreme heat.
