Description
Dahlia Cactus Friquolet is a striking cactus-type variety that features large, spiky petals in a bold contrast of deep red and crisp white tips. This eye-catching dahlia stands tall at 48-56 inches, making it a perfect focal point in garden beds, borders, and cut flower arrangements. With its dynamic bicolor blooms and unique petal structure, Friquolet brings an exotic touch to any landscape and thrives throughout the summer and fall with proper care.
This variety flourishes in full sun and rich, well-drained soil. Regular deadheading and pinching back excess buds encourage continuous blooming and larger, more impressive flowers. Its sturdy stems make it an excellent choice for floral arrangements, while container gardeners will appreciate its ability to create a stunning display in pots. In colder climates, lift and store the tubers before winter to enjoy its dazzling beauty year after year.
