when you can't decide if you want flowers or muppets in your garden, plant this dahlia

Gorgeous, huge dahlia with long drooping petals in yellow, orange, red ombre. Looks like Animal's (from tbe muppet's) head, truly

I spent the last hour looking up dahlias.

I don't even know who I am anymore. 🤔 🙂

Whatever it is, it's beautiful.

Edit: I noticed someone beat me to the reference 💁🏼‍♀️

A screenshot from the movie Labyrinth, showing a Firey (a sort of orangish, bird-like muppet with detachable limbs and head) with its mouth open and arms raised in a "jazz-hands" sort of gesture.

Looks like it's a Flamethrower dahlia
There are a bunch of variations.

Google image search for a Flamethrower dahlia shows a round headed flower with red and yellow dropped petals. Behind it there are parts of other flowers and green leaves.

@ElleGray Dahlias aren't usually super prolific plants. They'll only put out one or two really nice flowers and then a few stumpy ones. Those nice ones are amazingly nice though. You get to enjoy it for a few days and then have to wait an entire year for the repeat performance.
