Pure white with a hint of violet at the tips and a slightly
cream-yellow shimmer when the flower is open.
"Eveline" is not only a beauty , it is one of the most popular and best dahlias. Wonderful cut flower .
Off to the garden with it!
Quite charming together with " Who me? " and " Wizard of Oz " . Or with " Hemisphere ".
Tip: Pinch dahlias as soon as they are 20 to 30 cm high: simply shorten the shoot tip by a third. Then they will form several shoots, more flowers and become bushier.

🐝 Dahlias are often wrongly described as flowers that are not insect-friendly. However, as soon as the flowers open - even if they are densely filled - they release their stamens and are accessible to bees and other insects.
Flower happiness guarantee: You should enjoy your dahlias 100%. Sometimes nature does what it wants and that's actually quite nice, but not always in the interest of us gardeners. In rare cases, a tuber doesn't sprout. If that's the case for you, please contact me! We'll find a solution 💚
