About this plant
Dahlia 'Kaiser Wilhelm' is a ball-form variety, defined by its tightly packed, rounded petals that curl inward to create a uniform, globe‑like bloom. Its blossoms display custard yellow tones brushed with burgundy at the tips, often centered by a small green "button eye" that recalls antique floral forms. Flowering begins in midsummer and continues through late summer into early autumn, offering a sustained show of warm-toned blossoms. The refined curvature of each petal and the subtle tonal blending lend the blooms an old-fashioned elegance and garden presence that resonates with classic dahlia enthusiasts.
