Dahlia 'Café au Lait' is a tall, striking variety with very large flowers. Its broad, layered petals have an exceptional creamy colour with a delicate powder-pink tint. This pale shade brightens summer planting beautifully and contrasts strongly with the plant's dark green leaves. Thanks to its substantial size and tall stems, this dahlia is clearly visible from every part of the garden. It is a reliable choice for the taller parts of borders, where it creates a distinct yet softly toned focal point.
Plant in April and May.
The recommended planting depth is 5-10 cm.
Allow 50-60 cm between plants.
This variety reaches 70-110 cm in height.
Flowers from July to September.
This plant is not cold-hardy, so it needs to be lifted and stored in a dry, airy place.
It looks best in border plantings, alongside ornamental grasses or perennials in cooler shades. The flowers are valued in floristry - their large diameter and pale colour mean they often form the main feature of a bouquet. It also works well as a single accent in more formal parts of the garden.
