River’s Phoenix is a striking stellar dahlia featuring bold, flame-like blooms in a rich dark blend of warm tones. The pointed, tapered petals create a distinct star-shaped silhouette, giving each flower movement and a dynamic, textural presence.
The colouring carries depth and intensity, with layered tones that shift across the petals, adding dimension and visual impact. This dramatic palette makes it a standout in both garden plantings and floral work, particularly in arrangements that call for contrast and warmth.
Plants grow to approximately 3–4 feet, producing strong stems and consistent blooms throughout the season. With its unique form and saturated colouring, River’s Phoenix is a distinctive and reliable choice for cutting gardens and specialty design work.
