Collarette · 3–4"PinkNick Gitts / Swan Island Dahlias (2001)United States

Bumble Rumble was bred in United States by Nick Gitts / Swan Island Dahlias in 2001. Soft pink ray petals carry a bold raspberry overlay that deepens toward the center, where a frilled ring of short white petaloids frames a golden disc packed with nectar. Bees find it irresistible, often covering the open centers by midsummer. Bumble Rumble is a collarette dahlia that opens 3–4" blooms in pink.

Growing Bumble Rumble

Plant in full sun with well-drained soil once frost risk has passed. Pinch at four to five leaf nodes to encourage branching and generous flower production. Water at the base to keep foliage dry and reduce mildew risk through the humid months. Cut stems early in the morning once the outermost petals have fully opened for the longest stem life.

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