Semi-Cactus · 6–8"PinkSeverin (1963)Germany

Alfred Grille is a semi-cactus dahlia that opens 6–8" blooms in pink. Long, twisting petals open in a swirl of coral salmon and warm gold that deepens toward a glowing center. That color shift is what makes it unmistakable in any arrangement. It was bred in Germany by Severin in 1963.

Growing Alfred Grille

Plant in full sun once your soil has warmed and frost risk has passed. Pinch the central shoot early to encourage strong branching and more stems per plant. Stake your plants as they grow, since tall varieties can fall in wind. Deadhead regularly to keep new buds coming from midsummer until frost. Lift and store tubers after the first frost kills the foliage.

Spacing
Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking
Staking recommended once buds set
