Bashful

Bashful is a charming single-flowered dahlia that commands attention with its striking color contrast and pollinator-friendly blooms. Rich burgundy-purple petals are beautifully tipped in vibrant fuchsia, surrounding a brilliant golden-yellow center that glows in the garden from summer until frost.

Unlike more formal dahlia forms, Bashful's open-faced blooms invite bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators while adding a cheerful, naturalistic feel to borders, cutting gardens, and floral arrangements. The compact plants are exceptionally floriferous, producing an abundance of 3-inch blooms on sturdy stems throughout the season.

Whether planted among cottage garden favorites or featured in mixed bouquets, Bashful delivers bold color, continuous flowering, and irresistible charm.
