This was labeled a "waterlily" type dahlia which was an unfamiliar term to me and I've been to dahlia shows. This was taken at the Chicago Botanic Garden in early morning light.

Looks like I won't need that glass of milk to go with the gingersnaps after all. I had no idea they had shows exclusively for dahlias. I could understand if they were dandelions. Fabulous colours in this lovely close up, Kathy.
