Please see the notes and a second photo of this dahlia on my plant list page. More details included.
'Orchid Flame' is a 2nd option. For now this seems to be the best match.

Please don't make guesses when adding photos to the database. It would be better to place it in the generic entry if you don't have a confirmed ID.
I also have no idea where to find your additional notes and photo, it was not in your dahlia list.

I will list best guesses based on research only in my notes. All varieties linked to the database will be verified based on purchase. So my guessed name for Taratahi Lilac' is only in my notes, is now listed linked to generic dahlias. My notes are listed here: https://garden.org/lists/item/...

Sorry, your post was very confusing, when you wrote 'Orchid Flame' is a 2nd option. For now this seems to be the best match.", it sounds like you were not sure of it's exact ID plus the header "Made a best guess on this Dahlia ID". Adding that notation to this database photo and thus as a thread in the Plant Photos forum adds to the confusion.

Still trying to figure out how to comment in the right places on things in this big website.
