Dahlia Preference

Preference is a breathtaking semi-cactus variety with soft peachy-pink blooms that fade to creamy tips, creating a luminous, shimmering effect in the sunlight. Flowers measure 4–6 inches (10–15 cm) across and are held high on strong, upright stems—even in rain—making them as reliable as they are beautiful.

This tall grower (up to 4–5 feet / 120–150 cm) produces in abundance from midsummer to frost. With striking dark stems, refined flower form, and long-lasting blooms, Preference is equally stunning in the garden or vase—an ideal choice for bouquets and fall displays alike.

Blooms: 10 – 15cm
Height: 120 – 150cm

Grower: Bruidegom, D. (Netherlands), 1955

Dahlias should be planted after the risk of frost has passed and will continue to bloom from early summer until mid-autumn. For optimal growth and flowering, choose a sunny spot to plant the tubers, as Dahlias thrive in full sun.
