Colorful Decorative Dahlia Optic Illusion

Featuring a different look, this Colorful Decorative Dahlia has quilled petals that are a blend of rose-purple on white. Optic Illusion forms a nice bushy plant with lots of 5" fully double flowers—blooming for months on end! Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Showy flowers add interest to borders and bouquets. Remove spent flower heads to encourage more blooms and maintain a neat appearance. Easy to grow, but not hardy, take care to lift tubers in zones 3-7 in the fall and store in a dry, frost-free location. Deer tend to avoid. No. 1 clumps.
