Tahoma Early Dawn is a feathery, moonlit dahlia, with creamy white blooms kissed by the faintest blush and lavender at the petal tips—like early light sliding over clouds. The ruffled, almost fuzzy petals give each 4–6 inch flower a soft, romantic texture, and tall, sturdy plants send up flush after flush of stems that are effortless to design with.
Height: 4–4.5 feet
Bloom size: 4–6 (sometimes up to 6–7) inches
Form: Informal decorative / feathery; heavily ruffled, layered petals with a soft outline
Color: Creamy white with touches of pale yellow and lavender or blush, especially on cooler days; can read nearly pure white in heat
Vigor: Strong grower with multiple generous flushes from midseason to frost
Stem strength: Tall, sturdy stems ideal for cutting and larger focal blooms
Special notes: Gives you that coveted “soft white with a hint of lavender” look right from early in the season, instead of waiting for cooler temps to bring the blush out
Why you need this variety:
Tahoma Early Dawn delivers big, romantic, high-texture blooms in the most versatile soft white–lavender palette—perfect for weddings, editorial work, and any garden that leans into ethereal, cloudlike flowers.
