When it was still unnamed, I called this dahlia "People's Princess" because it was the most loved and photographed dahlia in my gardens. A laciniated bloom with a soft yellow center, pink-peach outer skirt, and high petal count, Van Isle Princess is an eye-pleasing, ceaseless bloomer. This captivating, aptly named cultivar with robust plant growth and lush green leaved appearance, surely add to its royal stature! Tall, strong stems, long vase life, and an abundance of blooms make it a great cut flower. Every dahlia grower must know her beauty!
