I thought I'd post these while the site is allowing me to post photos. I just wanted to show the dramatic change in this dahlia. The first photo was made around Sept. 25th. All the blooms on the plant have looked pretty much like this since it first opened in early September. Now all the blooms look like the one in the second photo. I have no idea what the name of the plant is but if I didn't know better I'd swear it was Duet or Mystery Day. The red or burgundy color has seemed to spread outward.
