    Customer photo review of Dahlia Tubers (Decorative) - Molly Raven

    These were a little slower to have true to form flowers than other dahlia varieties I'm growing this year, but the earlier flowers (single layer of petals with big yellow center) were still lovely. Colors were as pictured online. I'm very pleased with these, and I'll absolutely grow them again next year. Photos also show sweet Nathalie dahlias, la belle epoque dahlias, various cosmos, zinnias, and sage, all from Eden Brothers!

    Customer photo review of Dahlia Tubers (Decorative) - Molly Raven

    Colors a more saturated and brighter than the pictures show, but they are gorgeous nevertheless. The stems are long and sturdy. One of the plants is at least 5ft tall and still growing. Great branching, even though I did not pinch it.
