Caitlin's Joy

The Caitlin's Joy dahlia is a stunning and reliable variety, believed to be a sport of the famous maroon dahlia 'Cornel' (or 'Ivanetti') and discovered by the Geerlings family. It is celebrated for its "chameleon" color shifts and its role as a productive "workhorse" in both cutting gardens and professional floral design.
