Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This big, romantic dahlia is still winning so many blue ribbons almost 60 years after it was introduced that the ADS rates it a "Cream of the Crop" dahlia. Its unusual name is the title of a wildly popular Victorian travel-adventure about life among the gypsies. (When we tried reading it, we discovered we like the dahlia a lot better.)
