PLANT PROFILE: DESIGNING WITH DAHLIAS
ALL HAIL THE QUEEN
Lovingly referred to as the Queen of dahlias, the Dahlia ‘Café au Lait’ is nothing short of a showstopper. Here, Erin has created a natural marvel of a display starring the irresistible bloom, the star-shaped Dahlia ‘Honka Fragile’, with three different types of hydrangeas (Bobo, ‘Limelight’, and Quick Fire) and Wild Sorrel all in supporting roles.
THE ART OF ARRANGEMENT
When arranging dahlias, there are a few things to keep in mind. Dahlias make an excellent cut flower, or displayed individually, so one can appreciate their unique features up close. They play well with others and can be incorporated into any mixed bouquet.
