These flowers are beautiful however they have taken some time to bloom. They are full of buds now but I fear frost will get to them before they bloom.

Absolutely loved this dahlia this summer. They are smaller than the dinner plate sized ones but that's in the description and adds some variety for a bouquet.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

So sad...

I was so excited about this Dahlia. Unfortunately only one out of five came up and is about 2.5 inches tall. Sorely disappointed. My other Dahlias have begun to bloom. Don't know why this one is such a dud.

Lovely though short stems

Lovely although one did not come true to color. So I won't be digging that one to store over the winter. The others were lovely although their stems were on the short side for cutting for bouquets.

I really enjoyed growing these...the immature flowers were mostly white with soft yellow centers. They were gorgeous! As the Dahlias matured, they were striped with deep, vivid purples. I'm extremely pleased with these joyful little bloomers...
