Dahlia

I incorrectly posted the image of a garden mum earlier in my blog as a Dahlia. Below is the correct image for the post.

This hybrid of the Dahlia is called "bloomin crazy". The Dahlia is related species include the sunflower, daisy, chrysanthemum and zinnia. The herbaceous perennial plant were used for a food source by the indigenous peoples, and were both gathered in the wild and cultivated.
