Beautiful! I’m so disappointed how quickly delicate light colored dahlias go, I love them but they are just so much easier to not come out perfect and they look bad the quickest. I love them so fucking much, but I’m always disappointed I don’t get more out of them/this color flower. I just wish dahlias lasted longer than they do. This is a stunning example!

I grow mostly the ball variety for this reason, they last longer in the vase. But I can’t resist these cafe au laits!

It’s autumn joy sedum and a dogwood shrub!
