Variety Index

Arabian Night

A classic collector variety. Petals so dark they absorb light. Stunning in arrangements where it anchors bolder colors.

Bloomquist York

by Bloomquist Dahlias

From one of the most respected dahlia breeding families in the Pacific Northwest. Large informal decorative in ivory-cream with lavender-tipped petals.

Blue Beard

The closest the dahlia world gets to blue. Sought after by collectors for its cool, ethereal tone.

Dark Desire

A modern collector variety with some of the deepest, darkest petals available. Pairs beautifully with cream and white.

Destinys Joy

A collector-grade informal decorative in a delicate blush-white with just a hint of apricot at the petal edges. Hard to find and consistently in demand.

DLs Shy Violet

by Dandelion Lane Dahlias

A 2025 introduction from Dandelion Lane Dahlias in Lynden, WA. Soft violet petals with a creamy center. Farm introductions from Dandelion Lane are highly anticipated in the Pacific Northwest dahlia community.

Fidalgo Blacky

Named for Fidalgo Island in Washington State. A near-black informal decorative that competes with Arabian Night for darkest dahlia bragging rights. Community favorite for dramatic arrangements.

Gitts Crazy

No two blooms are alike. Each flower shows a unique mix of pink, lavender, and purple — hence the name.

Hollyhill Black Beauty

by Connell

Hollyhill Black Widow

by Hollyhill

Even darker than Black Beauty. Velvety near-black blooms with a deep wine undertone. Extremely limited availability.

Karma Yin

by Lex Vander Slot

KAs Cloud

by Kristine Albrecht

Bred by Kristine Albrecht of Santa Cruz Dahlias. Massive pale blush-ivory informal decorative, 8+ inches. Vigorous with long straight stems and non-stop blooms. One of the most photographed wedding dahlias in the Pacific Northwest.

Levis Blue Smoke

One of the most talked-about dahlia colorways in the enthusiast community: blue-smoke. A blue-lavender so dusky it photographs as genuinely blue in the right light — the closest thing to a blue dahlia.

Mabel Ann

Mission Abyss

A dramatic near-black informal decorative that the Pacific Northwest collector community obsesses over. Deep dark-red petals so saturated they appear almost black in shade.

Mystery Day

by Swan Island

Mystique

Nuit dEte

Penhill Dark Monarch

One of the most dramatic dinner-plate dahlias ever grown. Deep oxblood petals with a velvety sheen that deepens toward the center.

Seduction

Tahoma Moonshot

Enormous pristine white blooms with perfect symmetry. Exhibition variety that commands attention.

Tsuki Yori No Shisha

A rare Japanese exhibition variety. Name means 'messenger from the moon.' Enormous pristine blooms.

Wabi Sabi

Named for the Japanese aesthetic of imperfect beauty. Muted burgundy and terra cotta tones with a hand-dyed quality. Grown at Kale Lane Dahlias in Washington — highly sought after by design-savvy collectors.

Zorro

One of the most coveted exhibition dahlias. Deep crimson blooms the size of dinner plates with perfectly reflexed petals.
