Named after its Dutch breeder (sometimes spelled Reijmans), the possessive form confirms it's a person, not a place. The colour is warm orange streaked with red and yellow, and the split tips scatter the colours like sparks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 110cm with strong, upright stems, it makes an excellent cut flower. The unusual petal form is a talking point in any arrangement. Fimbriated types are relatively uncommon in mainstream commerce, so this is one of the more distinctive dahlias in the range. It flowers from July to November.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere to Plant Rejmans Firecracker\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe warm, fiery colours work alongside hot-scheme companions.
