Blush Wizard of Oz Dahlia Flower
Dahlias are a popular focal flower for DIY brides designing wedding flowers. These fresh-cut dahlias feature full, layered blooms with strong visual impact, making them ideal statement flowers for weddings and events. Dahlia wedding flowers work beautifully in DIY bridal bouquets, centerpieces, and small bud vases, adding structure and presence to any floral design.

- SUBSTITUTES
- Color: Blush pink
- Season: Year-round (do not perform well during hot summer months)
- Flower Design Type: Luxury Accent Flower
Flower care:
- Hydrate immediately upon arrival in 2–3 inches of very hot water.
- Give stems space—avoid overcrowding in buckets.
- Dahlias are extremely sensitive to heat (warm rooms, direct sunlight, etc.), dehydration, and rough handling, so keep cool and handle gently.
Important Note:
After extensive testing, we’ve reintroduced dahlias, shipping them directly from the farm for maximum freshness. While they are a highly delicate flower with a standard loss rate of up to 30%, we’re confident in their quality when handled with proper care.
The Good: High-impact, lush, and extremely photo-ready.
The Bad: Very short vase life and bruises easily—true divas. Not suitable for summer months without reliable refrigeration. Flower heads are side-facing (similar to sunflowers), which can make placement and overall design balance more challenging.
Dahlias are considered an 'Accent Flower'. Based on our design ratio suggestions here's our recommended quantity suggestion:
- Bridal Bouquet: 3-5Â stems
- Maids: 2-3 stems
- Bouts: N/A, too delicate
- Corsages: N/A, too delicate
- Centerpieces: 5-7 stems
- Large Arrangements: 10-15 stems
Flower Moxie reserves the right to make changes or substitutions. All substitutions are only done as a last resort, and only when the reasons for doing so are reasonable and genuine. For example, if a flower becomes unavailable (off-crop), incorrect color, or not in good condition to grace a wedding function we will substitute a flower that has a similar color and price-point.
