Why Connecticut Coral Dahlia is a Must-Grow Classic
Glowing Coral: Connecticut Coral shines with warm peachy-coral blooms, tipped in soft white for a unique, ever-changing display. No two flowers are exactly alike, making every bloom a little surprise. This 5” decorative dahlia is a perfect transition for floral designs, effortlessly tying together blush and rusty tones—especially in wedding work.
Strong, Productive & Built to Last: Introduced by breeder Charlie Jones around the 1970s, Connecticut Coral has been around for over 50 years—and for good reason. It blooms early, produces non-stop, and grows on tall, strong stems that hold up beautifully, even when cut hard. Plus, its tuber production is next-level—you’ll have plenty to divide and share.
A Workhorse in the Garden & Vase: Reliable, beginner-friendly, and stunning in arrangements, Connecticut Coral has all the traits of a perfect cut flower. If you love Connecticut Dancer, you’ll adore this variety just as much.
Plant it. Cut it. Let Connecticut Coral bring warmth and history to your garden. 🌸🍑✨
