I couldn't find a tag for this one and I forgot to take a photo of the whole plant. The clump was around 4' high.

Thanks guys! It's one that just grabs your attention. It's a small place but they have some nice mixed beds packed full of interesting combinations. NEXT time I'll have to stop, smell the roses and try to capture some of that.

It could be Happy Single Party

Another dark leaf yellow dahlia is Dark Angel Taxi Driver, but the center of that one is more yellow
