About this plant
Dahlia 'Rock Star' produces anemone‑form blooms with deep wine‑red outer petals that fold back gently, surrounding a fuzzy cushion center that gives each flower a textured, powder‑puff look. The narrow petals often show a subtle lighter tint at the very tips, adding a hint of contrast. Flowering begins in midsummer and continues into early autumn, offering extended bloom coverage on long, sturdy stems that are well suited for cutting and display. The rich coloration and unique form give 'Rock Star' strong presence in garden beds or bouquets, and its dependable flowering habit makes it a reliable choice throughout the growing season.
