Hollyhill Pollyanna was bred by Ted & Margaret Kennedy and introduced in 2020.

Characteristics:

Form: Miniature Ball (MB). This classification is for dahlias with a perfectly spherical, honeycomb shape, where the petals are involute (curled tightly inward) for more than 75% of their length. The Miniature Ball size is one of the most durable and long-lasting forms.

Color: Light Blend / Blush Pink and Yellow (L/LB/PKY). The color is a delicate and desirable blend of soft pastels:

• It presents as a sweet, soft, light pink or blush on the outer petals.
• The center often retains a creamy-yellow or butter-yellow glow.
• The overall effect is a warm, harmonious, and highly romantic light blend, making it a favorite for blush and pastel color schemes.

Bloom Size: Miniature (MB), typically ranging from 2 to 3.5 inches (5 to 9 cm) in diameter. This size is ideal for boutonnieres, corsages, and filler in bouquets.

Height: A productive plant that grows to a manageable 3.5 to 4 feet (105–120 cm) tall.

Performance:

• Cut Flower Quality: This dahlia is an excellent, high-performing cut flower, especially for florists. It is noted for being a prolific bloomer that produces flowers on strong, long stems with great flower attachment—all crucial traits for market use.
• Vase Life: As a Ball-type dahlia, it boasts an excellent vase life, often outlasting many larger, looser forms, which is a major advantage for wedding and event work. It is particularly valued for its consistent color, even in hotter climates where other blush dahlias might "wash out."
• Garden Use: Its relatively compact size and robust nature make it an outstanding addition to the front or middle of a garden border, as well as being a perfect filler-flower powerhouse in the cut flower patch.
