Brown sugar

Some dahlia colors are nearly impossible to capture in photographs, and Brown Sugar is beautifully, frustratingly one of them. This ball dahlia from Dutch breeder Henk van Eeuwijk took the flower market by storm with a color that seems to shift between rusty copper, warm terracotta, and rich brick red depending on the light and season. It’s the kind of color that makes people stop mid-conversation and ask “what IS that?”
The magic of Brown Sugar lies in how those perfectly cupped 3-4 inch blooms evolve throughout the growing season. What starts as bright rusty orange with softer highlights gradually deepens to rich copper-red toward the center, with the back of each petal showing even deeper, more mysterious tones. As autumn arrives, the colors intensify and the plant becomes even more prolific, timing perfectly with fall wedding season and harvest decorating.
At 3-4 feet tall, Brown Sugar delivers everything serious cut flower growers want: strong, perfectly straight stems, weather-resistant blooms, and excellent vase life. This variety has earned its reputation as a farm favorite because it produces consistently beautiful flowers that photograph well (even if they never quite capture that impossible-to-describe color) and work magic in arrangements.
Each order is for FIVE tubers.
