Attractive, dwarf plants bear a profusion of semi-double blooms, about 3 in./8 cm. across, with a wide assortment of beautiful colors. Plants are easy-to-grow and bloom profusely throughout the summer and early fall. Blossoms are striking in cut flower arrangements. Growing dahlias from seed is much less expensive than the cost of roots. Excellent in beds, borders, planters, window boxes, and hanging baskets. Make stunning cut flowers.
