Dahlia 'Pooh'
 
A cheerful and unmistakable collarette dahlia, Pooh produces bright scarlet-red petals surrounding a ring of smaller golden-yellow inner petals and a sunny yellow center. The open flower form gives the blooms a playful, almost pinwheel-like appearance while also making them highly attractive to bees and other pollinators. Its bright bicolor pattern brings energy and charm to borders, containers, and cutting gardens.
 
Originally introduced in the Netherlands, Pooh is valued for its nonstop flowering, strong branching, and excellent garden performance. The open blooms and lighter stems give the plant a relaxed cottage-garden feel while still delivering strong color from midsummer until frost.
