Isn’t it just charming? I am a sucker for orange/coral flowers, if you haven’t yet noticed. This dahlia bloomed right in the middle of the season. It gave us two blooms, so not prolific for me. Too bad as it was so darn pretty. The plant itself was 4′ tall.

All seeds grown in the high wind prairie, Midwest, in macro-climate zone 5(ish). Average dewpoint in summer is around 60. Soil is a loamy clay. Although my preference is organic, I have used commercial fertilizers from time to time. Growing days are approximately 135.
