My favourite dahlias from 2023
Last season's dahlia blooms were truly unforgettable, even though moving house brought the season to an early end. The joy of growing and collecting dahlias lies in discovering new beauties and adding them to our gardens. 2023 was no exception, and I'm thrilled to share my top picks with you!
Kokopuff
This stunning variety boasts pom-pom-like flowers in a soft, smokey rose hue on long stems. A prolific bloomer that kept giving all season, Kokopuff was worth the three-year wait. It's a definite keeper in my garden!
Small World
Petite white blooms with hints of blush make this dahlia perfection. After years of trying, I finally got my hands on Small World, and it's now my favourite white dahlia. It bloomed all season, and I had lots of success with cuttings too.
Megan Dean
Soft lavender ball flowers, on stems perfect for cutting made Megan Dean a unique addition to my garden. I'm so glad my speedy checkout skills meant I could finally add this beauty to my collection!
Linda’s Baby
The perfect peach dahlia, Linda's Baby blooms early in the season and doesn't stop. Her vibrant colour and consistent blooms make her a standout in my garden!
Platinum Blonde
This showstopper boasts white petals surrounding a fuzzy buttercream centre. A compact plant with steady flowering, Platinum Blonde is a true gem in my garden!
