No substitute is exact, and we say so in each profile. These are the varieties growers reach for when Cafe au Lait is gone.
Cafe au Lait Royal
A blush and white base streaked and tipped with magenta and purple for a tie dye effect. The RHS describes it as white overlaid with light purple blush and purple stripes.
Cafe au Lait Rose
Rich cerise pink and lavender rose with an iridescent quality per Floret, far more saturated than its blush parent.
Sweet Nathalie
A light blend in champagne and bisque, a soft neutral that shows more blush early in the season.

A light blend of creamy pink warming to a soft butter yellow center.
