Dahlia

This firey dahlia was closed when I first saw it. I could tell it was bursting to be open but I had to wait a few days longer. Flowers, especially dahlias bloom in their own time. All in our own time.

Did you know Dinnerplate Dahlias heads can grow up to 1 ft in diameter? Literally the size of dinner plates! They symbolize elegance, inner strength, and creativity.

“Phoenix” was chosen to be my submission for Artist of the Week for a FB group that has over 100k members!
