Award Winning!
Cafe au Lait has earned its place as one of the most recognizable dahlias in modern gardens and floral design. Known as the classic “wedding dahlia,” this beloved variety produces enormous 8–10" blooms in refined neutral tones. Flower color gently shifts with the season—ranging from creamy ivory and soft off-white to the palest blush or rose, sometimes with fleeting buttery undertones that add depth without overpowering its neutral appeal. Just one or two blooms are enough to create a striking visual statement in the garden or vase. Part of our Virus-Indexed Dahlia program.
Bold Size with Soft, Flexible Color
Cafe au Lait delivers dramatic scale without demanding, bold color. Its oversized dinnerplate blooms provide instant texture and impact while remaining subtle and elegant. The soft, creamy palette complements nearly every color scheme, making it ideal for gardeners and designers who value flexibility and refinement.
A Go-To for Bouquets and Arrangements
This dahlia is a staple for weddings, bouquets and standout arrangements for good reason. Long stems and massive blooms mean fewer flowers are needed to fill a vase or centerpiece. Each bloom brings fullness, balance and a polished look that elevates both casual and formal designs.
Reliable Performance with Showstopping Results
Beyond its beauty, Cafe au Lait is a strong garden performer. Plants produce strong stems and bloom generously from midsummer through frost. Whether planted in cutting gardens or display beds, this dahlia delivers consistent results with little fuss, rewarding you with flowers that feel luxurious and intentional.
