Gabbie's Wish

Gabbie’s Wish is a heartfelt favorite that brings both beauty and sentiment to the garden.

Hybridizer: A favorite seedling from Swan Island Dahlias, and named for the owner's daughter, Gabbie, who loved the bloom. (S.I.D. Created is confirmed by one source).

Characteristics:

Form: Formal Decorative (FD) or sometimes described with Waterlily-like characteristics. The petals are broad, flat, and regularly arranged, giving the bloom a neat, winsome, and somewhat childlike appearance.

Color: A beautiful blend of soft pink and yellow. It is described as a stunning perfect pink or soft coral pink on the outer petals, that gently transitions to a creamy yellow or muted yellow deep in the center.

Bloom Size: Small (BB), typically around 5 inches (12.5 cm) in diameter. The official ADS size classification is BB-Small (4"–6").

Height: A tall variety, growing robustly to about 5 to 5.5 feet (150–165 cm), with some reports up to 6 or 7 feet. It has long, strong, upright stems that allow the blooms to "float above the garden."

Performance: A prolific bloomer that flowers all season long. Known as a “workhorse in the garden,” Gabbie’s Wish is reliable, cheerful, and easy to grow.
