Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Orange, bronze and bits of apricot are blended together in the slightly tousled blooms of Babylon Bronze. This dependable producer is bright but not brash and adds interest to a mixed planting with its bronze foliage. As with other dahlias, pinch off the top shoot when the plant has 3 to 4 pairs of leaves to prompt branching and bushiness. Which translates into more flowers . . . always good.
