Dahlia MYSTIC DAHLIAS™ Mystic Fantasy
Dahlia variabilis = ‘Hawaiian Dreams’
Eminent NZ breeder Dr. Keith Hammett has spent years refining Gran’s favorites to come up with a distinctive new Dahlia series of stylish, more contemporary kinds of plants just right for today’s gardens. These beauties are set apart from other Dahlia varieties by their fashionable filigreed deep mahogany to black foliage topped with vivid blooms. Unlike their forebears, they do not require staking. Topping off their instant appeal are masses of demure single flowers in superb colors suited to a wide range of uses.
