Cute as a button, with lots of spice are the Irish Glow Dahlias. As a pom pom variety, they are only a little over an inch in size. The plant is another shorter variety that could work as a border dahlia.

Irish Glow was added because of years of obsession with the picture in the Swan Island Catalog, a obsession with Pom Poms and a love of the Irish. Who says you can’t judge a book by its cover or it’s title. We took our honeymoon in Ireland and have Irish family heritage. So it seemed like the shape, the color, and the name were all right in line with who we are at Wildhorse Gardens.
