Austrian Elegance: Dahlias with a Viennese Waltz

Moose’s Austrian Collection: Refined Blooms from the Heart of Europe

Straight from Austria’s dahlia fields, this collection showcases the grace, elegance, and precision that European breeders are famous for. Led by Peter Haslhofer of Peter’s Dahlien, these Austrian varieties bring a touch of old-world sophistication to the modern garden.

Current favorites include:

  • Hapet Rose Dream — soft, romantic blooms worthy of a waltz
  • Hapet Rosa Munde — refined rose-pink with European charm
  • Hapet Pearl — glowing, pearly tones with luminous presence

And that’s just the start — more Austrian introductions will be joining this collection soon, each one bred with artistry and intention.

Why gardeners (and The Gardening Moose) love Austrian dahlias:

🎨 Formal elegance and refined color palettes

🌸 Consistent forms perfect for both show and cutting gardens

🌍 Rare imports that stand apart from typical US stock

✨ Blooms that feel straight out of a Viennese ballroom

Moose Translation: Austrian dahlias are like strudel for your soul — rich, refined, and just the right amount of indulgent. Plant them, and let your garden dance the waltz all summer long.
