I thought that, but they shared happily. Bees kept trying to muscle in, but the butterflies chased them off!

All this was going on a foot from my nose - I was sitting on my seat up by the wall and the pots of Dahlias are right in front of me. :-)))

Roxy is a very popular lady then? I am not sure if we still have this Dahlia any more.

Yes, well worth growing. I have a plant in the garden which is still going strong after several years, plus four grown from tubers this year. I shall store the ones from the pots and if they don't survive, 'Roxy' is a definite for next year's list.
