Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Fun time is an All American Winner, a guiding indicator that this variety performs well in a wide variety of regions and conditions. Butter yellow florets, heavily edged in rose red, have ruffles that cover every inch of the petal perimeters. Nothing understated about this beauty! Consider pairing with dahlia Mr. Optimist, which brings a completely different spin to the same color combination. Then, take pictures.
