I'm including 50 seeds in each packet but am only considering 25 of the seeds to be viable; the others are included just in case one of them might sprout. Every seed is from these Lee's Carolina dahlias! Although each seed will produce a unique dahlia, the likelihood of a usable variety is far greater from a fully double seed parent like this, especially surrounded by other double dahlias! Fully double varieties produce less seeds than single/collarette varieties and it is very time-consuming to separate the seed by hand, which is the reason for the low seed count per packet, but I think it will be more than worth it for you with the amazing potential found in these seeds!
