Description
Organic Yellow Perception Dahlia
3″ blossom | 4′ Full Height | Dahlia pinnata
We love Yellow Perception for her relentless cheer and upright abundance, though we suspect our pollinators love Yellow Perception even more than we do! Her open, nectar-rich centers seem to always be bustling with butterflies and other beneficials. Yellow Perception resists breaking & lodging even in rich soil and high winds, as well.
To extend dahlia vase life, place freshly cut stems in 160-180 F water & allow to cool. Who knew? You do!
