The ‘Café au Lait Royal’ dahlia is a stunning variation of the classic ‘Café au Lait’ variety, known for its deeper, more vibrant hues while maintaining the same show-stopping size and elegance. Here’s a detailed description:

  1. Color: Unlike the soft, pastel tones of the original ‘Café au Lait,’ the ‘Café au Lait Royal’ features rich, jewel-like hues of deep mauve, dusky lavender, and hints of plum or wine. The velvety tones add a dramatic, regal quality to its appearance.
  2. Bloom Shape: The flowers are large, fully double, and luxurious, with slightly ruffled petals arranged in a layered, sculptural pattern. The overall form is rounded and lush, making it a standout in any setting.
  3. Size: The blooms are impressive, often reaching 8–10 inches in diameter, making them a bold focal point in the garden or arrangements.
  4. Foliage and Stature: ‘Café au Lait Royal’ plants have dark green, sturdy foliage that complements the dramatic blooms. The plants typically grow to a height of 36 to 48 inches, depending on care and growing conditions.
  5. Bloom Season: This dahlia blooms profusely from mid-summer to the first frost, providing continuous color and drama in the garden.
  6. Uses: The ‘Café au Lait Royal’ is a favorite among florists and gardeners for its deep, romantic hues and large blooms. It’s perfect for bouquets, floral arrangements, and wedding designs where a touch of sophistication and depth is desired. It also works beautifully as a statement plant in garden beds and borders.
  7. Growing Requirements:
    • Light: Thrives in full sun (6–8 hours daily).
    • Soil: Requires well-draining, fertile soil enriched with organic matter.
    • Watering: Needs consistent moisture but should not sit in soggy soil.
    • Care: Regular deadheading encourages continuous blooming. The large flowers may need staking or support to prevent stems from bending.

The ‘Café au Lait Royal’ dahlia is an excellent choice for anyone looking to add bold, luxurious colors to their garden or floral arrangements while retaining the elegance of the ‘Café au Lait’ lineage.
