That's beyond beautiful

Well, I'm speechless!!!

Holy Cow that is gorgeous!

That IS gorgeous and sounded so familiar. To my delight I found Blackberry Ripple out in my garden, newly bought with many others this spring! I can't wait for a bloom- my dahlias are late and slow this season.
I am a sucker for purple and white, of course there's nothing wrong with yellow, pink, bronze, etc etc...
Nice flower Bruce B.

Oooh, how gorgeous!

Trying photo, mistakenly labelled it Raspberry Ripple since it's berry eating time here! This is really a great flower if you like purple.

Verrry nice Poochella!

I let mine flower like crazy after the first one. Still going gangbusters...

I love this flower! My second bloom is open and weather is kicking the dahlias into overdrive. I can only hope this is a good tuber producer. One of my favorites to date.
Great photo Bruce!

My photo is not as clear as Bruce B's, but the variegation is so wildly different on each flower.

I love that stripey look. I have a similar one called Smokey. It is full of buds but sooo slow.
