Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Warm apricot petals with yellow accents and the subtlest pencil stripes encourage one to slow down and appreciate the beauty of this dahlia. It's like having the shades of dawn blooming by your back gate. Long, purple stems inspire snipping (feel free, the plant will make more) and the 4-5" flowers are well sized for vase sharing with other mid to large blossoms.
