Black Jack

Package contains: 1 tuber

Ships in spring

Black Jack is a saturated near-black bloom, this dahlia unfurls in layers of inky burgundy, oxblood, and smoldering garnet-so dark it reads almost velvety at dusk.  The form is bold and sculptural, perfect for arrangements that lean into contrast and drama.  It anchors a bouquet with gravity, lending sophistication and a touch of intrigue, whether used sparingly or en masse. 

Black Jack pairs beautifully with soft blush or antique rose dahlias for contrast, or with smoky mauves, dusty lavender or muted taupes.  Deep green foliage like salal or seeded eucalyptus and dimension and texture.  Late season accents dark amaranth make for a moody, statement piece.

A true showpiece for autumn gardens and designs that favor depth over delicacy.
