Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Dahlia Mystic Dreamer has rich pink blooms with white and darker pink highlights and luscious, dark burgundy, filigreed foliage. The Mystic Series has some of the darkest foliage of any dahlia. Excellent in containers or in the garden. Will bloom from June until October. Three options for winter starting with the easiest and safest: 1. grow in a pot and move to a frost-free area, 2. lift tubers and store, 3. (for coastal BC) leave in the ground in well-drained, sunny beds under a mound of fallen leaves. Cultivar name: 'Zone 10'.
Almost too pretty to be real! Contrastic fabulosity with jewel-like 3" pinwheel pink blooms popping out from delectable rich, mahogany-black foliage. A very useful 3' high & 2' wide in size, you can certainly find a spot for this awesome new treasure especially since it blooms from May through October! No staking. Do dead-head to prolong bloom. Big thanks to our favorite breeder Keith Hammet. Deciduous.
