Platinum Blonde
Platinum Blonde
Platinum Blonde is a stunning anemone dahlia: a single ring of pure white petals surrounds a plush, fuzzy pillow of soft ivory-gold florets. Bred by Nick Gitts and introduced by Swan Island Dahlias in 2007, it's a high yielder and a bouquet favorite.
- Form: Anemone
- Color: White with a creamy-yellow center
- Bloom size: about 4 inches
- Plant height: about 4 to 4.5 feet
- Bloom time: mid-season, about 90 days, then on until frost
A strong, sturdy plant. Stake early, and cut when the center florets are just starting to open. Grow in full sun. Pollinators love it.
Sold as a single tuber with an eye. Tubers ship in spring.
Platinum Blonde was bred by Nick Gitts (Swan Island Dahlias) (USA). Every Platinum Blonde dahlia tuber we sell was grown, dug and divided by hand on our Northern California farm.
Anemone dahlias have one or more rows of outer petals around a dense pincushion of tubular center florets.
