Cara Elizabeth Dahlia
Smoky peachy-pink with soft washes of butter, apricot, and blush, Cara Elizabeth brings a color that’s hard to find and impossible to forget. Her blooms start rich and moody, then fade to a lighter, antique peach as they age—always beautiful at every stage. A florist favorite thanks to those long stems (and a grower’s too), this variety shines in wedding work and arrangements, blending effortlessly with both bold and neutral palettes.

Cara Elizabeth is a true one-of-a-kind offering that offers a soft, romantic balance that designers crave. She’s the kind of bloom that makes people stop and stare—an absolute must-grow for anyone who loves dahlias.

Do you know who hybridized this dahlia? We've stalked the interwebs for several hours to no avail. I was able to determine that it most likely originated in the U.S. sometime around 2017. This is where my leads go cold.

Welcome to the Dahlia Files

The Dahlia Files is our ever-growing library of blooms we’ve grown, loved, retired, and occasionally fired. Think of it as our not-so-secret vault: organized, categorized, and sometimes judged.

This is where we keep notes on every dahlia that’s passed through our fields—whether it’s a current favorite or a one-season wonder. These blooms aren’t for sale here (sad trombone 🎺), but you can see what is coming up or available to shop from the navigation bar, following on Instagram, and subscribing to the newsletter.
