Description
Bring a touch of timeless sophistication to your garden with Dahlia Crème de Cognac, an exceptional Decorative Dahlia that embodies classic elegance. This variety is celebrated for its large, luxurious blooms in a warm amber hue reminiscent of fine cognac, with delicate undertones of creamy apricot that deepen at the centre. Each petal is rounded and perfectly layered, giving the flower a plush appearance that catches the light and appears almost luminous in your garden. The blooms are relatively small, measuring across 7–10 cm.
Standing at an impressive height of 90–100 cm, Crème de Cognac displays its sumptuous flowers on strong, upright stems that resist drooping, even in windy conditions. The deep green foliage provides a striking contrast that accentuates the rich colour of each bloom, making it an eye-catching addition to borders, beds, or cutting gardens. Blooming from mid-summer to the first frost, this dahlia offers a season-long display of luxurious beauty.
What makes Dahlia Crème de Cognac truly special is its unique colour palette and velvety petal texture, adding a sense of depth and dimension not commonly found in other varieties. Perfect for enhancing mixed beds or as a centrepiece in floral arrangements, this dahlia holds up beautifully in vases, making it a cherished addition for any flower lover.
