Karma Chocolate Dahlia Tuber
Karma Chocolate is an award‑winning waterlily dahlia with velvety burgundy‑maroon petals that darken toward an almost black center, giving the bloom a depth and richness few varieties can match. Its dark bronze‑green foliage intensifies the drama, creating a plant that feels both elegant and quietly powerful. Some blooms carry more red‑black layering, others soften toward weathered rose, echoing the saturated reds of mature sockeye and the muted tones of post‑spawn fish. Compact, upright, and lightly scented with a hint of chocolate, it brings a moody, luxurious note to the garden and the vase.

Morph Type: Pattern Morpher — variation in saturation and red‑black distribution bloom to bloom. Karma Chocolate holds a consistent waterlily form and a stable burgundy‑maroon palette, but individual blooms differ in how strongly they express the red‑black layering. Some blooms open with more saturated red in the outer petals, others with deeper maroon or near‑black tones toward the center, and many show both in shifting proportions. The pattern variation is bloom‑to‑bloom rather than seasonal, and the underlying palette remains consistently dark, velvety, and rich.
