Precious is a soft, romantic standout in the garden — a dahlia that lives up to its name with every bloom. It’s perfectly formed 3-inch flowers open in elegant rose-pink tones that gently fade to white at the base, while the outer petals mature into a light lavender wash, giving each blossom a dreamy, watercolor quality. The formal decorative form ensures every petal is symmetrical and refined, creating a bloom that looks hand crafted for bouquets and design work.
Growing to about 4 feet tall, Precious is both graceful and reliable, producing an abundance of blooms throughout the season. Many growers note that it’s among the earliest dahlias to flower each year, making it a favorite for cutting gardens and market growers who want color early and often. Its soft palette pairs beautifully with blushes, mauves, whites, and deeper purples, making it a versatile choice for weddings and romantic arrangements.
Whether you’re designing for special events or elevating your garden with gentle, feminine color, precious delivers charm, consistency, and a touch of lavender kissed magic.
