Description
Dahlia 'Platinum Blonde' epitomises understated sophistication with creamy white petals surrounding a butter-yellow, tufted centre. This anemone-flowered variety produces refined 12cm blooms that glow luminously in low light, making it exceptional for evening gardens and cut arrangements. Thriving in full sun and well-draining soil, Dahlia 'Platinum Blonde' flowers reliably from mid-summer through autumn. The subtle colour palette integrates seamlessly into contemporary and traditional schemes alike. Moderate in stature, it suits borders and containers with equal poise.
Deadheading encourages prolonged blooming whilst staking supports developing stems. An exemplary choice for gardeners seeking elegant restraint and dependable performance. Compact and free-flowering, Dahlia 'Platinum Blonde' thrives in sunny spots and well-drained soil. Its sophisticated tones work perfectly in neutral or pastel planting schemes, and its long stems make it an excellent choice for cutting. With poise, charm, and endless grace, Dahlia 'Platinum Blonde' is the floral equivalent of quiet confidence.
