Description
Spanish nobility reported finding Dahlia plants growing in Mexico in 1525, but the earliest known description is by Francisco Hern�ndez, physician to Philip II, who was ordered to visit Mexico in 1570 to study the "natural products of that country". Hernandez described two varieties of dahlias (the pinwheel-like Dahlia pinnata and the huge Dahlia imperialis) as well as other medicinal plants of New Spain.
