Apple Blossom Dahlias are a open collarette style flower popular with growers who like to pollinate blooms to grow seed and by natural pollinators looking for a nectar stop. The blooms have a peachy pink to yellow appearance with a large whirl of outer petals and a small whorl of mini petals next to the stamens. The plant produces an array of blooms over the season and started blooming earlier than most of our mid season varieties.
