Joel's Favorite - Dinnerplate Dahlia

Joel’s Favorite is a radiant bicolor dahlia known for its creamy white base kissed with soft lavender-pink tips. Each bloom looks hand-painted, with pastel tones that deepen as the season cools, creating a gentle ombré effect. The blooms are full, slightly ruffled, and incredibly photogenic—perfect for bouquets, weddings, and softly romantic garden plantings.

A reliable, easy-to-grow performer, Joel’s Favorite produces long stems and generous blooms from midsummer to frost. Its dreamy palette pairs effortlessly with roses such as David Austin’s ‘Evelyn’, ‘Desdemona’, Kordes’ ‘Wedding Piano’, Weeks’ ‘Pope John Paul II’, and Star Roses’ ‘Sunblaze Pink’. This variety is an excellent choice for gardeners who love soft pinks, blush tones, and cottage-garden charm.
