Mr. Optimist dahlia, profuse bloomer, lovely picotee and darker color.
Every gardener knows that under the cloak of winter lies a miracle ... a seed waiting to sprout, a bulb opening to the light, a bud straining to unfurl. And the anticipation nurtures our dream."

Banner perfection....rich color, contrast, details, lighting.
Can we please see more, e.g. the whole bloom, the plant, and anything else
you'd like to share?
Not sure if this was the image as I take photos daily.
Thank you for the compliments. This is Mr. Optimist: from a Walmart bag! Heavy producer with lovely blooms.
