Sterling Silver, hybridized by William Eichman and introduced in 1965, is a timeless formal decorative dahlia prized for its luminous silvery-white blooms and exceptional flower form. The large, perfectly arranged petals create a refined, symmetrical flower that seems to glow in the garden and vase alike. Strong stems support an abundance of elegant blooms throughout the season, making this variety equally valuable for wedding work, exhibition growing, and cutting gardens. Its cool white coloration pairs beautifully with every palette, from romantic blush and lavender combinations to bold jewel tones. More than half a century after its introduction, Sterling Silver remains a favorite among growers who appreciate classic beauty, dependable performance, and outstanding floral versatility.
