Looks a good one, @Hostafan1, nothing like a big fat turber
Received my extravagantly large order of 13 dahlias from Peter Nyssen today of which 9 are dark dahlias. All big and fat and all now planted up. I’m looking forward to seeing them all in bloom this summer, but particularly the Mexican Stars...
Mountainous Northern Catalunya, Spain. Hot summers, cold winters.
Bishop’s Desire is lovely. A sort of dark magenta. An accidental cross between Bishop of Llandaff crossed with another dahlia whose name I forget. Here is mine from last year, just out into the ground.
Posts
5 x Mexican star
3 x Night Butterfly
1 x Rip City
1 x Dracula
Plus 3 x Happy Single Date (orange)
Far too tempting, that company!
sorry it's out of focus, 3 Black Touch for £4.99. Nice big fat turbers .
