Bodacious - Item #006

 

BODACIOUS (AAID) Introduced in 2002. The name says it all! Huge 11" blooms are a bright orange red with yellow showing on the edges and underneath of each petal, giving it the illusion of having tongues of fire. An excellent prospect with a bush height of 4 1/2-5'. 2001 Derrill Hart Winner. Late bloomer. Should do well in exhibition.

‘Bodacious’ lives up to its name, with brilliant color and blooms that are supersized in both height and diameter. Heavy-headed ‘Bodacious’ requires beefy stakes. The rich color and ruffled effect of the loosely arranged petals make it stunning as a cut flower. -Alastair Gunn, Dahlias that deliver, Fine Gardening issue #121
