Golden Scepter is a classic for a reason. This timeless Dutch bred variety is nearing its centennial year and still a hit, thanks to its sweet coloring and pom-pom style. Small pincushion flowers open to two inches across, with tubular petals that add structure and whimsy to any garden. An excellent cut flower, Golden Scepter is a great addition to any cut flower bouquet. Try this dahlia in a border or even a bit futher back in the bed. It's also a fantastic container plant, and its bright yellow flowers blend well with shades of yellow, orange, red or maroon.
