20th Ave Old Major Dahlia

$20.00

20th Ave Old Major is an exceptional lavender ball dahlia introduced by breeder Rich Gibson in 2022. Known for its large, perfectly spherical blooms, the color of this variety ranges from lush violet to pale lavender. Standing impressively tall at 5.5 to 6 feet, it produces abundant blooms all season long. Its symmetry and substance have earned it top scores in six trial gardens, with an average score of 87.39 and a bench score of 88.36. This overachieving variety has also won the prestigious Derrill Hart and Lynn B. Dudley medals, making it a standout both in the garden and at flower shows.

The blooms of 20th Ave Old Major can be breathtaking, with infinite rows of involute petals, creating an almost flawless ball shape. It has consistently performed in competitions, achieving bench scores as high as 90 and passing trial gardens with flying colors. An early and prolific bloomer, it is widely admired for its presence and award-winning form. This must-have variety is a showstopper, perfect for exhibitions, and a longtime favorite in gardens.
