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.
