Dahlia 'Papageno'
Papageno Dahlia
Dahlia 'Papageno' unfurls large informal‑decorative blooms in a soft peach‑apricot tone, gently warmed by subtle yellow at their centers. The broad petals open wide in midsummer, forming generous, slightly ruffled flowers that continue producing into early autumn. On strong stems, each head carries the light‑blended coloration with gentle variation, adding a soft glow to garden beds or mixed bouquets. Its easy‑going form and dependable flowering habit make 'Papageno' a reliable variety for those seeking long‑lasting pastel presence and garden‑to‑vase durability.
