The name of this Dahlia is a good description of it. For me, it is perfection! This is a fabulous Dahlia with 10-inch blooms. It is 3 1/2 feet tall or taller. The flowers are a soft pink with white tips. Despite the blooms being so large, it is a prolific bloomer. It does take a little more time to get going, so I try to start it in a pot under lights. The only negative is that toward the end of the summer the blooms tend to lose their pink and are more white than pink.
