 17042014Al193 Asteraceae for ID : 6 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (1). And I may very well be wrong! Not matching a Dahlia Any other? If leaves belong to this, this can be Gerbera.. No, I have no idea, for I still think it’s a Dahlia cultivar/variety. Well, …, I fail to find further solution, leaves of one butter daisy look similar, but flowers are different. I couldn’t find any similar Melampodium. Flower looks rather like Dahlia variabilis, but leaves not. I fail to id this one. If you clicked “Dahlia” in my 2nd reply mail in this thread you would have seen similar looking flower – https://australianseed.com/shop/item/dahlia-red-skin-mix. If you did search with the term, “Dahila variabilis” you could have landed to leaves like yours, one example – http://biljke.bosnianforum.com/t244-dalija-dahlia-variabilis. As I said earlier, I still think it’s a Dahlia for its flower and bud. Or do you have better alternative? No sir. I think you got it right with this one. The yellow flower in the centre is a perfect match! Thank you very much. My 2nd reply in this very thread can be accessed at efi thread. Each of the word, in string “Dahlia cultivar/variety.” was linked with a different site. You didn’t reply at that time! No problem, of late it has been a customary practice of this group not to bother for any reply or reply in such a way as to bypass certain mail addresses! btw, I think, we should not go for particular Dahlia species. At most it can be Dahlia variabilis Hort. I apologise sir. And yes definitely, this may be left at Dahlia sp. Thank you very much. Never apologise …, you didn’t do anything wrong, I knew you might had missed the first link in that string. I too was not sure about leaves. But, I find no alternative, and as I said flower and bud look like that of Dahlia. Please do never hesitate to argue with me on any id related issue. In that process I too learn from you of course sir.  Thank you once again. This is only “Dahlia” to me. As per Encyclopedia Britannica, common garden Dahlia are D. bipinnata, featuring shortened ray florets https://www.britannica.com/plant/Dahlia
