Variable colors, but reds & oranges are most common in the bloom department. To 3’ tall & bushy, it doesn’t need that silly staking either.

The dahlia foliage looks very similar to the marigold leaves but is much darker and larger.

I love the curling of the petals :) It gives them a sort of "spoon" shape.

Gorgeous black foliage & richly colored 3-4” single blooms, good mildew resistance & its reliable perennial-ness makes this a Dahlia to lust for!
