Korb Summer Gala Dahlia – The life of the perennial party. This garden gala opens early and never stops! Korb Summer Gala graces the stage with elegant 4–6" blooms of soft white, lavishly tipped in lavender-purple—like spun sugar kissed with twilight. Her Informal Decorative form gives each petal a relaxed elegance, as if she’s dancing on a summer breeze.
Standing tall at 4–6 feet, she’s as generous as she is glamorous—blooming nonstop from early summer until frost, producing excellent cut flowers, and offering up a bounty of easy-to-divide tubers. Rain or shine, she keeps the show going strong with sturdy stems and performance you can count on. Bred by D. Korb and introduced in 2001, Summer Gala is a true classic—effortlessly stunning and always in season.
