Why Dahlia's?
Dahlias are an amazing plant that will flower from the middle of July right through to the first frost, which in some areas can be the end of October beginning of November. What other plant would give so much joy for such a long flowering period? Whether using the dahlia for mixing it into an existing flower border or into a container, or just the excitement of growing the perfect bloom for the show bench.
A flower with so many colour variations, some of the two toned colours look as if they have been created by an artist with great dedication.
A flower with so many different size and shape blooms some as large as dinner plates (ones for the boys) right down to the small pom dahlias. And in recent years the dahlia has been used in the garden more to attract bees especially the single petaled varieties where the pollen is on show from the minute the bud opens up. Single or Collerette varieties are good examples of dahlias which are good for the bees as the pollen is exposed straight away.
Even if you only have a small garden or a patio there is a dahlia for everyone.
They are quite happy grown in containers. Give them a try.
