Dahlia Embassy

Dahlia ‘Embassy’ – Burgundy-Purple & Silver Decorative Dahlia Tuber

Dahlia ‘Embassy’ is a striking small decorative dahlia producing beautifully rounded, fully double blooms with an unusual and sophisticated two-tone color effect.
The flowers range from deep burgundy red to rich purple and plum, while the reverse of the petals is white to silvery white. As the petals curve and overlap, the pale reverses appear between the darker layers, creating a distinctive silky, almost metallic glow.
Blooms typically measure approximately 10–12 cm across, while mature plants generally reach around 90–110 cm tall. Its rich coloring, neat flower form and excellent cutting qualities make Embassy an outstanding choice for cutting gardens, dramatic bouquets and sophisticated floral arrangements.

Growing in Kuwait

• For Kuwait conditions, Dahlia ‘Embassy’ is best grown during the cooler growing season once extreme summer temperatures have declined.
• A practical planting period is: October to November
• Plant tubers approximately 10–15 cm deep, positioning the crown and growing eyes upward.
• Avoid excessive watering immediately after planting. Once active shoots and roots develop, gradually increase watering while maintaining excellent drainage.
• Provide good sunlight during the cooler months, with some protection from intense afternoon heat as temperatures rise toward the end of the season.
• Because plants may reach 90–110 cm, staking is recommended.
