Isobel Dahlia Tuber

A beautifully soft, changeable dahlia with the prettiest mix of dusty lavender, mauve, rose and warm blush tones. Isobel forms neat, rounded blooms with layers of gently curved petals, often showing a slightly deeper rose colour underneath.

Part of its charm is that the colour can shift as the season goes on — from cooler lavender and dusky pink through to warmer salmon and peachy tones. It's an especially lovely one for picking, bringing that slightly romantic, gathered-from-the-garden feel to a bunch.

• Flower type: Small ball dahlia
