Dahlias are easy to grow and add a multitude of magnificent colours to your garden during the summer to fall months. They are available in almost every imaginable flower shape, colour, and height. There is said to be close to 50 000 named varieties that have been listed in various registers and classification list. The trend in recent years has been the emergence of black as a foliage statement. Dark-leaved Dahlias provide dramatic backdrops and glorious flower power. Birds, bees, and butterflies love the showy star-shaped flowers. They bloom profusely and make long-lasting cut flowers.
