John Meggos Dahlia-A floral firework of color and charisma, John Meggos dazzles with massive 9"–10" blooms in rich crimson streaked with golden flame. No two flowers are ever quite the same—each one is a living canvas of dark red and buttery yellow, with bold variegation that makes it a standout in any setting. This Informal Decorative stunner earns its "dinnerplate" status with grace and gusto.
Towering at 4½ to 5½ feet, John Meggos is all drama, all season—bursting into bloom early and continuing well into mid-season. Whether you're growing for show, for bold bouquets, or simply to stop traffic in your garden, this variety delivers high-impact color with an artist's touch.
