Dahlia

Thats a gorgeous colour.

Just what I thought Thrup.

Thanks -- and this is the 'cheapie' one from the supermarket. I prefer it over the 'special' one from the plant nursery. I never bothered to lift it last year and as you can see it's fine to stay out all winter. I just cover it with mulch.

I agree I ve never seen one with such gorgeous colour you seem to have a good eye . Thats great it survives winter yes mulching also feeds it to.
