KA’s® Cinder Rose Dahlia

KA's® Cinder Rose is one of those rare dahlias whose color seems almost impossible to describe. Layered blooms open in an extraordinary blend of smoky blush, antique rose, and soft mauve, with creamy undertones and a deeper dusty-rose center. The colors shift subtly across each bloom, giving Cinder Rose the nuanced, almost watercolor quality that has made it so sought after.

Its softly rounded decorative form shows off that coloring beautifully, with layers of petals creating depth without overwhelming the delicate palette. Romantic but never sugary, KA's® Cinder Rose brings a sophisticated, muted quality to arrangements and is especially striking alongside creams, blushes, mauves, and other antique tones.

Why We Grow It: The color. There really isn't anything else quite like KA's® Cinder Rose. Its elusive mixture of smoky blush, antique rose, mauve, and cream changes with the light and from bloom to bloom, making it remarkably difficult to capture in a simple color description. It's one of those varieties that reminds us why a truly distinctive dahlia doesn't need much embellishment—the flower speaks for itself.

Growing Tips: For detailed planting, staking, watering, and overwintering advice, visit our How to Grow Dahlias guide.

We are proud to offer select varieties from the Santa Cruz Dahlias® breeding program, created by renowned hybridizer Kristine Albrecht (KA's®). These exceptional cultivars are carefully field-grown here at Ribier Gardens for vigor, stem quality, and garden performance.

Every purchase of a KA's® variety helps support Santa Cruz Dahlias'® ongoing breeding work, ensuring these remarkable genetics continue to be developed for future generations of gardeners and flower growers.
