Dahlia Crazy Legs

Crazy Legs is a vibrant and quirky stellar-form dahlia that lives up to its name with playful, starburst-shaped blooms. The petals are partially rolled, giving them a quill-like, orchid-style appearance. Their color palette is a dazzling blend of glowing orange and pastel red, with a darker raspberry-red center and petal reverse that adds rich contrast and dimension.

Blooms measure around 3 inches across and are produced in abundance on tall, upright plants reaching about 4 feet in height. With strong stems, lush foliage, and prolific flowering, ‘Crazy Legs’ is a standout in both garden beds and autumn arrangements—an energetic and eye-catching variety for any collection.

Blooms: 7 – 10cm
Height: 90 – 120cm

Dahlias should be planted after the risk of frost has passed and will continue to bloom from early summer until mid-autumn. For optimal growth and flowering, choose a sunny spot to plant the tubers, as Dahlias thrive in full sun.
