KM’s Purple People Eater

Description:
My first seedling that I am releasing into the world!!!
 
KM's Purple People Eater is not your typical dahlia. I've grown it for four seasons now. She has 3" blooms that are not stable in form or color, which is why I love her (first photo). At the beginning of the season she is a full formal decorative with bright vibrant lavender color blooms (second photo). As the season continues she shape shifts to a light lavender (third photo) to a full on mauve color with petals like valley porcupine (fourth photo). And then you get a mix of all these colors and forms thrown in. She can reach 7' tall and makes tons of enourmous tubers. She might be quirky but she continually blooms on long, strong stems, and makes a great addition to the garden and market bouquets. I hope you love her as much as I do!!
