Dahlia The Hotest Plant This Summer

Dahlia Powder Lavender
 Once considered a little dated now the hotest plant on the market. Possibly thanks to Gardener's World and Monty's persistence every year with his brightly coloured dahlias in his celebrated Jewel Garden.




Fabulous old favourites like Bishop of Landaff will continue in popularity but we also have many new tough floriserous varieties. After all it is about having lots of colour.

Powder Lavender
 It is simplistic but so achievable to fill  your pots with lavender pink dahlias. They are easy to keep and the pinky tones harmonise so perfectly with many of the pinks and purples and blues in the garden.

 A clashing contrast and probably not to plant together we have dazzling golden orange.
 And here deep Power Burgundy.
