Manoa Dahlia is a striking dahlia highly valued for its intense, velvety color and dark foliage, which makes it a dramatic focal point in any garden or arrangement. Characteristics: Form: Formal Decorative—fully double blooms with symmetrically arranged petals in a rounded silhouette. Color: Dark Red (DR) / Burgundy / Brown-Red—The flower boasts a deep, rich, saturated color, often described as velvety deep red, dark burgundy, or brown-red. This intense hue is complemented by the plant's dark foliage. Bloom Size: Small (BB) or Miniature (M)—Blooms are consistently reported to be small, generally 3 to 4 inches (8–10 cm) in diameter, which places it firmly in the Small (BB: 4–6 in) or just slightly under into the Miniature (M: up to 4 in) category, depending on growing conditions. Height: Medium to Tall—The plant grows reliably to a height of 3 to 4 feet (90–120 cm). Foliage: Dark bronze-green leaves that contrast beautifully with the saturated blooms. Performance: A very popular variety, especially among cut flower growers, due to its early and productive blooming habit, excellent contrast of dark foliage with rich blooms, and sturdy stems that make it a good cut flower. It is often cited as a suitable alternative to other dark dahlias like 'Karma Choc'. Please note that the listing is for one tuber.
