We're in a fairly isolated rural area (very isolated and
rural for the northeastern USA), and I just bought two small
dahlias at a local supermarket.  $1.99 each.  :)  Pretty
good, I thought.  

I assume that dahlias, like everything else, has varieties
but one of mine was labelled 'Yellow' and one was labelled
'White', and that's all.  Since each had a blossom when I
bought them, I really could have figured this out for
myself..
