Dahlias and more dahlias

The package called this one "Sight of Summer" but I'm not finding that variety online. The Connecticut Dahlia Society website claims there are as many as 40,000 named varieties of dahlias. Some of them are pretty hideous to me, looking more like plastic flowers than real flowers, but some of the forms are so elaborate that you can't help but admire them!
