Shiloh Noelle

The Shiloh Noelle dahlia is an exquisite and romantic "dinner plate" variety introduced by Cunningham (USA) in 1986. Often considered a more refined successor to the famous Café au Lait, it is highly coveted by wedding florists for its soft, pillowy texture and sophisticated pastel tones.

• Color: Light Blend (LB) / Lavender & White. Features layers of soft, silky petals in a powdery blush-pink or pale lavender that fades to a creamy white as the bloom matures. This transition creates a beautiful two-tone effect, with the center showing more saturated color than the outer petals.
• Form: Informal Decorative (ID). Boasts a relaxed and winsome silhouette with petals that gently twist and twirl. ADS Classification: 0110 - AA ID LB.
