Lee's Punch Drunk Love

The Lee's Punch Drunk Love dahlia (often referred to as Lee's Punch Drunk) is a high-impact and prolific variety introduced by breeder Lee Hemmings Carlton of Goldenrod Gardens in 2024. It is celebrated for its intense, "neon" saturation and its status as an absolute powerhouse in the field—making it a favorite for bold, summer-inspired floral designs.
