Cornel Dahlia
Cornel is a classic ball dahlia and an absolute must-have for gardeners, floral designers, and exhibitors alike. Introduced in 1982, this variety features rich, dark chocolate-red blooms with a velvety texture, measuring 4 inches in diameter. The flowers are perfectly rounded and grow on strong, straight stems, making Cornel an excellent choice for cutting gardens and exhibitions. Its weather-resistant blooms hold their shape and color beautifully, both in the garden and in vases, where they have an exceptionally long vase life.
Standing at 3.5 feet tall, Cornel is a prolific bloomer with a reliable, upright growth habit. This dahlia’s deep, dramatic color and uniform shape make it a standout in both floral arrangements and garden displays. As one of the best red dahlias on the market, Cornel is celebrated for its versatility, performance, and timeless elegance.
