Notes
'Peaches and Vanilla' dahlia (Dahlia 'Peaches and Vanilla') is a bulb for containers, borders, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun and dry soil. The blooms are close to five inches wide with pointed petals tipped with cream, and they open in early to late summer and again in early to mid autumn. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. Protect it from winter wet, or lift and store the bulbs in a cool, dry, frost free spot.
Pairs well with Ruby Star coneflower, Star of persia, and Shenandoah switchgrass.
