A Dreamy Pastel Pink Waterlily for Romantic Borders

Pre-order for dispatch end of February 2026.

The Dahlia 'Evanah' is the epitome of garden romance. This exquisite Waterlily-type variety produces perfectly formed, cup-shaped blooms in a soft, misty shade of pastel pink. As the flower matures, the petals often fade gently towards the centre, creating a delicate, frosted effect that looks stunning in the soft light of early morning or evening.

With its long, strong stems and excellent vase life, 'Evanah' is a top choice for cutting gardens and florists. The blooms are not too heavy, meaning they sit beautifully in bouquets without drooping. In the garden, its fresh, bushy foliage and prolific flowering habit make it a hardworking star of the summer border, blending effortlessly with whites, purples, and other soft pastels.
