⚡ Short Teaser

Carolina Wagemans is a dainty 3-inch waterlily in coral-pink tones, bred in the Netherlands and preserved thanks to Carolina’s legacy. Moose has found this variety to be an absolute workhorse, pumping out a ton of blooms all season long — and that coral color really stands out in the field. Consider me smitten.

🌸 Full Product Description

✨ Dahlia ‘Carolina Wagemans’ — Coral Glow in Petite Waterlily Form

This variety is believed to trace its heritage through Geerlings Dahlias in the Netherlands, named in tribute to Carolina Wagemans whose family helped keep it alive. The blooms open in a waterlily form — broad, flat petals unfurling gracefully — in radiant coral-pink hues that light up a garden or bouquet without overwhelming.

Growers report plants reaching about 3–4 feet tall, with long, dark stems that carry the blooms beautifully. Customer and nursery listings emphasize its floriferous habit — many buds, reliable performance, and dramatic color for its size.

The Gardening Moose says: I may be antler-deep in dahlia fields, but this one stops me in my tracks every time. It’s hardworking, stunning, and has that rare ability to be both delicate in bloom size and bold in color.
