Fancy Pants
The pinwheel dahlia that bees find before you do.
Plant Fancy Pants at the front of a border and watch it spin. Cerise pink petals twist and fold around a creamy white collar and golden center, landing somewhere between a pinwheel and a firework. Pollinators arrive before the season hits its stride, and the blooms keep coming until frost shuts everything down.

How to Grow It
Pinch early to encourage a full, branching plant. Stake loosely at planting time. The vigorous growth will thank you for it. Consistent deadheading keeps fresh blooms coming all season. Grows well in containers as well as in-ground beds. Full sun brings out the sharpest contrast between the cerise pink petals and the creamy white collar.
