Kenora Wildfire Dahlia – Turn up the heat! With explosive color and undeniable presence, Kenora Wildfire lives up to its name. This fiery beauty lights up the garden with bold 8–10" blooms in electric red, flickering with intensity against lush dark foliage. Its semi-cactus form gives the petals just the right amount of flare—rolled, pointed, and full of drama.
Standing tall at 3–4', this variety is as dependable as it is dazzling. Bred by Gordon Leroux and introduced in 1989, Kenora Wildfire has earned its stripes as both an exhibition star and a cut flower favorite, holding its brilliance in the vase for up to two weeks. A true scorcher for beds, bouquets, and show benches alike.
