Dorothy R is my absolute favorite white dahlia so far. Looks similar to Hollyhill Miss White but is an earlier bloomer, slightly larger and more prolific. Just a touch of pale lavender in the center. Great in bouquets. For wedding work, if you want a cool toned white, I'd recommend this. Often she has no lavender blush and just presents as a pure snow white.
NOTE: sometimes eyes pop up on the necks of her tubers.
