Pretty Woman Dark Angel Dahlia
Introduce dramatic late summer and fall color with the 'Pretty Woman' Dahlia. This variety showcases lovely lavender-pink blooms accented by golden-yellow stamens, set against striking burgundy foliage. It grows on a compact plant, making it ideal for containers or smaller garden spaces. These cheerful, simple-shaped flowers also excel as cut flowers. For cooler climates, tubers can be lifted after the first frost, stored, and replanted the following spring.

What customers say
Customer sentiment centers on the spectacular visual impact of the Dark Angel Dahlia's deep, velvety blooms. Successful growers describe it as a garden showstopper, praising the rich, near-black coloration that matches expectations and noting its robust flowering. This aesthetic justifies the premium price for many. However, satisfaction is tempered by recurring issues with tuber viability and consistency. Some customers report tubers failing to sprout or arriving damaged, which significantly lowers perceived value for those affected. While customer service is often praised for resolving these issues, the initial disappointment impacts the overall experience. The product is polarizing: successful blooms earn ecstatic reviews, but non-viable stock causes significant frustration.
