Dahlia Strawberry Cream

Dahlia 'Strawberry Cream' is a decorative dahlia variety that brings a delightful blend of soft pink and creamy white hues to the garden. Each bloom features a cream-white base with a strawberry-red heart, creating a harmonious and eye-catching display. The flowers are fully double and approximately 4 inches in diameter, making them a charming addition to garden borders and floral arrangements. This dahlia reaches a height of about 40 inches, making it suitable for the middle or back of garden borders. Dahlia 'Strawberry Cream' blooms profusely from July to October, providing a continuous display of color throughout the summer and into the fall. For optimal growth, plant 'Strawberry Cream' in full sun and in well-drained, fertile soil. Plant the tubers in spring after the danger of frost has passed, about 3-4 inches deep and spaced 16 inches apart to allow for adequate air circulation and growth. Regular watering is essential to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Deadheading spent flowers encourages continuous blooming throughout the season. In colder regions, it's advisable to dig up the tubers after the first frost and store them in a cool, dry place over winter to protect them from freezing temperatures. With its soft color palette and robust growth habit, Dahlia 'Strawberry Cream' is an excellent choice for gardeners looking to add a touch of delicate beauty to their landscapes.
