Hillcrest Kismet

The Hillcrest Kismet dahlia is a radiant and "shimmering" variety introduced by British hybridizer Les Jackson in 2000. Celebrated for its unique, multi-tonal palette that appears to change like a hologram in the light, it is a top-tier choice for high-impact floral arrangements and show benches

• Color: Light Blend (LB). A shimmering and mysterious mix often described as a blend of warm salmon-orange, pomegranate, and cinnabar, frequently accented with a touch of gold or "fuchsia-to-salmon" radiance.
• Form: Formal Decorative (FD). Features tidy, symmetrically arranged petals with a precise, uniform appearance. ADS Classification: 3010.
• Bloom Size: Small (BB). The substantial and head-turning blooms typically measure between 5 to 6 inches (12.5–15 cm) in diameter.
• Height: Tall. A vigorous grower that typically reaches approximately 5 feet (150 cm) in height and requires extra support for its long, strong stems.
