{"product_id":"dahlia-nadia-ruth","title":"Dahlia Nadia Ruth","description":"\u003cp\u003eDahlia ‘Nadia Ruth’ is one of those varieties that combines size with softness in a way very few dahlias do. The blooms are large, often reaching true dinnerplate size, and they carry a light, almost airy feel despite their scale. The color sits in a gentle range of shell pink, buttercream, and soft blush. Toward the center, you’ll often see a warmer tone, while the outer petals fade to a lighter, almost creamy white. That subtle shift gives each bloom depth without making it look busy or overworked. What really defines ‘Nadia Ruth’ is the petal structure. This is a fimbriata dahlia, meaning the petal tips are finely cut and slightly frayed. Up close, the flower has a feathered texture that softens the overall look. From a distance, it reads as full and luminous, but never heavy. The blooms are typically around 6 to 10 inches across, held on strong stems that make this variety reliable both in the garden and for cutting. Plants grow to about 3 to 4 feet tall and flower steadily from mid summer until the first frost. In the garden, Dahlia ‘Nadia Ruth’ works as a soft focal point. It has the size to stand out, but the color keeps it easy to place. It blends naturally with blush tones, creams, pale yellows, and even deeper shades where it can lift the overall planting. In evening light, the blooms almost seem to glow. For cutting, this is a standout variety. The stems are long, the blooms are large without being stiff, and the color works across a wide range of arrangements. It’s the kind of dahlia that adds volume and texture without overwhelming everything around it. Plant your dahlia tubers in spring after the last frost, once the soil has warmed. Choose a sunny location with rich, well-drained soil and give plants enough space to develop. Staking early is recommended to support the large blooms. In colder parts of the United States, lift tubers after frost and store them dry over winter. If you’re looking for a dahlia that brings together size, softness, and that distinctive fringed texture, Dahlia ‘Nadia Ruth’ is one that delivers all season long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DutchGrown - Spring","offers":[{"title":"2","offer_id":52485882511541,"sku":"W400","price":8.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4","offer_id":52485882544309,"sku":"W400","price":8.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"8","offer_id":52485882577077,"sku":"W400","price":8.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1902\/7917\/files\/Dahlia_Nadia_Ruth-5.jpg?v=1777817304","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchgrown.com\/products\/dahlia-nadia-ruth","provider":"DutchGrown","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
