A Bit of History

Crème Brulee is a relatively new introduction bred to bring smoky warmth and dual-tone drama. With its soft golden tones blending into burnt sienna, topped by raspberry reverses, it’s quickly gaining popularity among dahlias lovers who want both warmth and contrast. Growers report it is prolific in bloom production and particularly good as a cut flower thanks to its sturdy stems and consistent performance.
