Sandia Bliss Dahlia Tuber
Sandia Bliss is a luminous waterlily‑form dahlia whose 4–5 inch blooms open in soft pink, creamy rose, and light yellow, often warming into golden peach as the petals cup in the evening. The heavily ruffled, layered petals create a floating, pond‑lily elegance, and as a Phase Shifter, the cultivar shows more yellow in high heat and deeper pink‑blush tones in early and late season or as blooms first open. This shifting palette mirrors both the warm blush‑to‑peach glow of Rainbow Trout in angled light and the soft gold‑to‑rose diffusion of Post‑spawn Sockeye, where pigments settle into gentle, luminous gradients. Compact 40–48 inch plants produce long, strong stems and abundant blooms, making this 2024 Boley introduction a standout for cutting gardens and romantic, light‑washed arrangements. Graceful, airy, and quietly radiant, Sandia Bliss feels like a bloom caught in the last warm light of day.
