Lavender Perfection is a formal decorative dahlia that opens 8โ10" blooms in lavender. Immaculately uniform petals in soft lavender build into dinner-plate blooms with the precise symmetrical structure that wins on the show bench. Introduced in 1941 and still one of the most reliably well-formed lavender varieties in production, it has outlasted dozens of newer competitors. It also holds its form on the show bench.
