One of my favorite dahlias from Big City Al! This is a little bright red bloom machine. My flowers had closed centers (weather related, I think?) and good stems. Very cheery.

This is a nice detailed little ball. The centers never really opened fully for me. Should be nice for cutting. Very rich red.
