I wanted a Dahlia in our themed garden, obviously because of the tenuous "Dahl" link to our theme. I liked the variety name "Honka", because it rythmes with "Wonka" (a bit of Dahlesque poetic licence here),, but was unprepared for what I subsequently discovered about this plant genus. Will have to do a blog on this one). :-)

Many Thanx, for the "likes", folks, and your comment, Sue!

I really will have to write a blog about the dahlia, as was amazed by how much more it fitted in with our chocolate theme, than I would ever have thought (you'll be amazed, too, I think?) Sorry, but will get round to this asap! :-)

No secrets, just interesting facts linked to our theme, but too much to record in a comment. :-)
