Dahlia ‘Linda’s Baby’
Lovely, lovely Linda has warm peach tones with the hint of pink/lilac at the eye.
Peach fuzz is the ‘Pantone Colour of the year 2024!’
Dahlia ‘Linda’s Baby’ is another one of my most favourite Dahlias that is so hard to get hold of, so I’ve decided I MUST get them in for us to all share.
Shades change throughout the season, I love mixing this dahlia with other flowers to bring out the colours (see my bouquet in the gallery).
Once you have one I know you are going to treasure it!
I’m absolutely thrilled that we’ve been able to include Dahlia ‘Linda’s Baby’ in our Annual Tuber Sale this year.

Cutting /Vase Life:
Dahlias do not continue to open once cut so pick when blooms are ¾ of the way open. Check the back of the flower head to check all the petals are perfect. The petals turn papery, drop and lose colour once they start to go over. Deadhead flowers to give plants back the energy to ripen the next flower rather than work on producing seed.
Place flowers straight into ready buckets of water, we rest our blooms for a few hours in water, this is called conditioning.
