Dahlia-Cafe Au Lait

Size: 8-10 inches (Dinner Plate)

One of the most popular dahlias, Café au Lait is beloved for its large, dreamy blooms in shades of blush, champagne, and soft mocha. Its romantic, pastel hues make it a staple for weddings and floral arrangements. With a slightly unpredictable color range, every bloom is a beautiful surprise!

• Space tubers 12-18″ apart, 6″ deep.
• Dig a hole wide enough for the tuber, placing it on its side with the “eyes” up (small purple or white bumps around the neck).
• Use a fertilizer low in nitrogen or bone meal for a strong start.
• Cover with soil but do not water immediately—wait until leaves emerge to prevent rot.
• In containers, keep soil moist but not bone dry.
