The colors were not so clear as I"d hoped though the plant was healthy and I have no complaints about its growth. Color wise I was disappointed.

It was a nice tall plant with strong stems, however the blooms were not as in the catalog photo. The blooms we had were consistently a rust-orange color throughout. It was a nice flower for cutting. Prolific bloomer.

Q
i bought two packages of dinner plate dahlias from Bimart in Winston, Or this spring of 2022. i don't remember the names but i already have yellow , so i know they were different colors than yellow. i planted them, they grew. one is a small burgundy flower, pretty, but similar to what i already have and i wanted dinnerplates. the other grew but hasn't flowered, so i don't know what it is, but i can tell by the leaf size that its just going to be another smaller flower head..could you please send me some dinnerplates, i don't feel these is a bimart problem, because it was in the packaging and labeling on your end. thanks so much, i live in a banana belt off of the coast, so you can send them now and they will still grow or replace them in the spring.
