Formal Decorative · 4.5"OrangeGebr. Verwer (2004)Netherlands

Allegro is a formal decorative dahlia that opens 4.5" blooms in orange. One pot of Allegro can show four colors at once. Each rounded bloom blends salmon, orange, pink, and lilac, and the mix shifts as the sun moves, so no two flowers ever read quite the same. It was bred in Netherlands by Gebr. Verwer in 2004.

Growing Allegro

Give Allegro a big container or a spot at the front of a sunny border and let it carry the color show. Pinch the young tips once to push out extra branches, then deadhead often so fresh buds keep coming until frost. You can skip the stakes, since the stems stay short and sturdy. After the first frost, lift the tubers and store them cool, dry, and frost free for winter.

Spacing: Space about 18–24 in apart
Staking: Compact enough that most growers skip staking
