Hy Trio Dahlia
Description
Hy Trio is a showy, garden-bright bloomer known for its lively, multi-toned look, with petals that read as a cheerful blend of complementary hues for a true “tricolor” effect. Its full, well-formed flowers stand out beautifully in beds and mixed borders and make eye-catching cut stems for bouquets. Plant Hy Trio where you can enjoy the color shifts up close, and keep blooms coming with regular deadheading.
