Hy Suntan

Hy Suntan is a warm, copper-toned ball dahlia that delivers consistent production and strong stem quality throughout the season. The neatly rounded blooms measure 3-4 inches and display rich, sun-warmed tones that shift between copper, burnt orange, and soft bronze depending on the light.

Plants are somewhat compact in stature, but when pinched early they respond with a generous flush of long, sturdy stems that are excellent for cutting. This variety has earned a reputation as a dependable producer and a favorite for bouquet work, offering both reliable yield and beautiful colour.

Hy Suntan pairs beautifully with blush, cream, peach, burgundy, soft yellow, and deep red tones, making it highly versatile in late summer and autumn arrangements.
