RM Summer Haze

The RM Summer Haze dahlia is a breathtaking 2024 introduction by Hailey Sly of River Merle Farm. It is quickly becoming a favorite for its "summer sunset" aesthetic, offering a dreamy, shifting color palette and a romantic, ruffled appearance that makes it a standout in both the garden and high-end floral work.

• Color: Bronze (BR) / Multi. A mesmerizing blend of peachy-bronze, soft orange, and golden-yellow hues, often featuring a distinct dusty lavender or lilac center. The colors transition beautifully as the bloom matures, mimicking the hazy glow of a late August evening.
• Form: Formal Decorative (FD). Features broad, slightly recurved petals that create a full, lush, and layered look with a neat, organized center. ADS Classification: M-FD-BR.
• Bloom Size: Miniature (M). Blooms typically measure between 3 to 4 inches (7.5–10 cm) in diameter, making them a versatile size for bouquets.
• Height: Tall. A vigorous grower that reaches approximately 4 to 5.5 feet (120–165 cm) in height, requiring sturdy support due to its height and heavy flower production.
• Performance: Productive and Swoon-Worthy. Praised for its strong, usable stems and high flower yield. Its unique color-shifting petals make it a "must-have" for florists looking for romantic, complex tones that pair easily with pinks, purples, and corals.
