Dahlia 'Macalister's Pride'
Macalister's Pride Dahlia
Dahlia 'Macalister's Pride' opens to rich raspberry blooms with glowing yellow‑gold centers and softly tapered petals arranged in the semi‑cactus form. Flowers begin revealing their color in midsummer and continue steadily into early autumn, delivering extended garden presence and long stem suitability for cutting. The petals' outward curl gives a dynamic yet tidy silhouette, while the color transition-from gleaming yellow core to intense raspberry edges-adds depth to each head. Supported by dark foliage and strong stems, this variety offers reliable performance and year‑long impact in borders and containers.
