And here it is in an arrangement. Since I wanted to leave some of the dahlia stalks for a potential second flush of blooms, I did not cut them very low. I paired them up with some alstromeria to give the arrangement enough height so that I can include a few sago palm leaves. This is the same alstromeria that has been blooming for about three months. Canna flowers don't last as cut flowers, but I always grow some for the leaves.
