Sandia Brocade is a wildly charismatic anemone dahlia, with a tight cushion of rich red and gold florets framed by a back row of back-curving, rose‑gold petals. The effect is pure fireworks—each 2–4 inch bloom looks like a tiny, embroidered rosette that lights up the plant, and the plants themselves are generous, bushy, and absolutely packed with color.
Height: Up to about 4 feet
Bloom size: Miniature, roughly 2–4 inches
Form: Anemone; full, textured center with a single ring of decorative petals
Color: Warm orange/rose‑gold outer petals with a red and gold, highly detailed center
Vigor: Very floriferous and reliable; covers itself in blooms through the season
Stem strength: Excellent stems for cutting despite the smaller flower size
Special notes: Bred by Steve and Sandy Boley (Birch Bay Dahlias); often becomes a “pet favorite” because of its personality and intricate centers
Why you need this variety:
Sandia Brocade gives you intricate, textural blooms that read like living jewelry—small but unforgettable. If you love anemone forms and want something truly distinctive for both the garden and the vase, this one earns a permanent spot.
