Description
A charming medium decorative dahlia, Cornflake produces distinctive apricot-orange blooms tipped with crisp white. Each flower can develop its own balance of orange and white, with some blooms occasionally opening almost entirely in warm apricot. The result is a wonderfully varied display, with no two flowers looking quite the same.
A strong and productive grower, Cornflake flowers from summer through autumn and is well suited to both the garden and the vase. Its unusual colouring makes it particularly lovely when grown for cutting, where the varied blooms create beautiful, tonal bouquets.
