Frank Holmes Dahlia-Quiet Beauty, Lasting Impression. Elegant in form and serene in color, Frank Holmes is a masterclass in understated charm. Its petite 1½" pompon blooms are perfectly sculpted spheres, dusted in soft lavender that deepens into a velvety violet center—like tiny moons glowing among green leaves. Neat, symmetrical, and always composed, each bloom brings a sense of calm precision to the garden.
Standing at a compact 3½ feet, this variety is both refined and reliable. Its strong stems make it a favorite for tightly gathered bouquets, while its clean geometry and soft hues lend structure and poise to borders and beds. Frank Holmes may not shout for attention, but once you see its quiet beauty, you’ll find yourself coming back for another look.
This is a bloom for those who believe elegance is in the details—and that the most memorable flowers are sometimes the softest spoken.
