Meet Coseytown Peach Donut! I've shared this dahlia online over the last few years and she seems to have quite a few fans.
First, let's talk about that green center button. Does it go away? No, it does not. While this is technically considered an open centered dahlia, Coseytown Peach Donut is very sloooow to produce pollen. And unlike many other open centered dahlias, because that center button stays pollen-free for such a very long time, Coseytown Peach Donut is an excellent cut flower dahlia.
Coseytown Peach Donut's shining glory is her coloring. She begins the season a delightful peachy/pink, and as the nights get cooler will deepen into a rosy pink. She's not in the orange family, at least not on my farm. Coseytown Peach Donut is definitely a favorite here, and I know she'll find a piece of your heart as well!
LeeAnn's Hybridizer Notes
For maximum vase life, harvest blooms from CT™ Peach Donut when her first back petals are starting to fully unfurl (see example in product photos). Also check out the product videos to get a sense of the CT Peach Donut's great plant growth habit. Many of the side buds will elongate enough to produce cuttable stems of their own. While this dahlia makes smaller tubers, they store well when mature. CT Peach Donut easily roots from cuttings, but the cuttings sometimes don't make many tubers. When started from cuttings, I recommend storing the resultant tuber clumps unwashed and whole for the best outcome.
