La Belle Époque - Cutting

La Belle Époque is a romantic informal decorative dahlia celebrated for its softly blended, vintage-inspired colouring. The blooms display a harmonious mix of peach and warm apricot tones with a muted, dusky cast, creating a luminous, antique quality that shifts subtly with changing light.

The petals are generously layered in a relaxed form, producing full blooms with gentle movement and depth. This nuanced colouring allows it to pair effortlessly with both soft pastels and deeper tones, making it especially valuable in refined, garden-style arrangements.

Plants grow to approximately 3–4 feet and produce sturdy stems suitable for cutting, with reliable flowering throughout the season. Its distinctive palette and consistent performance make La Belle Époque a standout in both the garden and floral design work.

What You Will Receive

You will receive one rooted dahlia cutting, grown and established with a healthy root system. Cuttings are actively growing at the time of shipment.

Cuttings should be gradually acclimated to outdoor conditions before transplanting. Protect from frost and cold temperatures.

Because cuttings are living plants, growth rate and performance may vary depending on growing conditions and care. With proper hardening off and transplanting, cuttings establish quickly and often outperform tubers in early-season vigor.
