Crazy 4 Jessie was introduced to dahlia lovers in 2009. With her eccentric Incurved Cactus form and luscious coloring, she is another favorite and common prize winner.

The 4-6" blooms are cherry-to-magenta-red with bright yellow streaking towards their centers. They are produced prolifically on a 3'-4' tall plant.

It is another excellent cutter, presenting upright on long sturdy stems and lasting well in bouquets.

This and other blooms are available at the Ridgecrest Pub on NE 165th at 5th NE, for a donation to the Senior Center. New bouquets every Tuesday and Friday.
