Dahlia and dianthus set the stage at CAST for Dümmen Orange
Dümmen Orange will be introducing a new dianthus to North America at the California Spring Trials event. Learn more about the new varieties being highlighted and how they could align with your current production schedule.
Dianthus ‘Sprint Pink & Proud’
Coming to North America in 2027, this carnation-style dianthus (shown above) features unique, layered petals in shades of pink and white for a striking tie-dye look. Like all Sprint varieties, it is first-year flowering and highly programmable for key sales windows such as Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day.
Dahlia ‘Summer Bees Salmon Bicolor’
New to the Summer Bees series, introduced last year, Salmon Bicolor features large, open blooms that attract pollinators all summer long. Its well-branched, upright habit showcases unique single bicolor flowers, perfect for 6- to 12-inch containers and as a standout in Garden Party combinations.
Begonia ‘I’Conia Portofino Valencia Pink’
A bold new addition to the series featuring large, double hot pink flowers held above dark, veined green
foliage. Excellent branching creates a medium-sized, upright mounding habit. Portofino is highly versatile, performing beautifully in 1.25-quart pots and larger, in both sun and shade.
Nepeta ‘Serene Wild Orchid’
a strong, upright habit. Hardy and drought tolerant like traditional nepeta, it brings a refined look
to landscapes and mixed plantings.
