Highly recommended!

I live in the High desert, and my dinner plate dahlias flourished! This one is stunning!

Outstanding

Profuse bloomer. Gorgeous, huge flowers even when grown in pots. Good vase life.

Stunning!

I expected Vassio Megos to be a lighter pink but in my garden I was pleasantly surprised by its deeper raspberry color. The blooms were large and the reflexed petals made this dahlia a unique beauty.

Hello Molly,
Dahlias are full of surprises! While we count on most annuals and perennials to produce the same color flowers throughout the growing season, this is not always the case with dahlias. As the season progresses, colors may intensify or take on a cooler or warmer cast. We’re glad you enjoyed these blooms!

Dahlias how beautiful are and big they are and also bloom from Summer thru Fall, are great.

These flowers are easy to grow, and put on such a magnificent show of gigantic, gorgeous color all summer long! Never disappointed!

Pretty good!

This is a stunning, beautiful dahlia and I will grow it again. The only reason it is 4 stars and not five is color inconsistencies. 2 of my 3 tubers were bubble gum pink streaked with with raspberry and raspberry centers. Gorgeous but not as pictured. The third was a beautiful blush pink with some creamy yellow. I actually thought it was bahama mama until it curled back and the bahama mama next to it bloomed. I love the colors I received and will try to save tubers from them. But I would not put them in the lavender family.
