Notes
'Strawberry Cream' dahlia (Dahlia 'Strawberry Cream') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, and butterfly gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun and dry soil. The double flowers are creamy white and pink with strawberry red streaks. They bloom from early summer to frost on firm stems that reach 4 to 6 feet tall. Butterflies visit the blooms, so plant it in the mid to back of the bed.
Pairs well with Sea holly, Purple sage, and Buffalo grass.
