Description

XXL pack of Dahlia Cafe au Lait are 3 double peachy flushed, creamy white flowers that bloom all summer from July until the first frost. It is one of the most requested dahlias for floristry and curated garden schemes because the colour is neutral, soft and adaptable. The blooms are dinnerplate sized and typically open in creamy ivory tones, often shifting through beige, latte and blush notes depending on weather and stage. Irish horticulturists use it heavily in estate borders, hotel planting and event led displays because it reads as premium, photographs well and works with almost any palette. In home gardens it is best planted where the scale can be appreciated, near patios, paths and entrances, or grown in large containers for a controlled, high impact display. For cutting, the big blooms are ideal for wedding work, show vases and late summer arrangements, and regular cutting encourages repeat flowering. Pair it with soft pinks, pale blues, lavender tones, silver foliage and ornamental grasses for a refined scheme, or use it to calm brighter borders. Plant after frost risk in full sun and fertile, free draining soil improved with compost. Keep moisture steady through summer, stake well as the heavy blooms need support, feed from bud stage onwards and deadhead regularly to keep buds coming. Lift and store tubers frost free after the first frosts for reliable return in Ireland.
