Florelie Limonata

The Florelie Limonata dahlia is a bright and cheerful Australian variety introduced by Lorelie Merton of Florelie Seasonal Flowers in 2025. It is celebrated for its soft lemon tones and its specifically bred upward-facing habit—making it a game-changing "workhorse" for floral designers frustrated by nodding dahlia heads in bouquet work. 

• Color: Pale Lemon / Soft Butter. Features luminous, clear lemon-yellow blooms that maintain a fresh and sunny appearance without fading significantly as they age.
• Form: Miniature Decorative (M Dec). A well-formed, petite decorative bloom with a tight, reliable center that holds its structure exceptionally well on the plant and in the vase.
• ADS Classification: 4102 (likely). While an Australian cultivar, its size and lemon profile align with a Miniature Formal Decorative Yellow.
• Bloom Size: Miniature. Refined, small flowers that typically measure under 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter.
• Height: Medium to Tall. Reaches a mature height of approximately 4 feet (120 cm). Like many in the Florelie series, it benefits from deep initial cuts to encourage long, productive stems.
• Performance: Superior Bouquet Flower. Highly productive and reliable, it is specifically prized for its upward-facing blooms and excellent stem attachment. It is a standout performer for commercial cut flower production due to its exceptional vase life
