Dahlias
Dahlia 'Maniac'
Maniac Dahlia
Dahlia 'Maniac' opens with peach-orange blooms streaked and mottled in bold red, formed in exuberant semi‑cactus heads that maintain strong blooms from midsummer into early fall. The petals flare outward and twist slightly, giving each flower a dynamic silhouette held confidently on upright stems. As the season progresses, some blossoms deepen in color intensity while others take on subtler tones-creating a lively variation across the plant.
