What's Blooming This Week


The flowers of this small dahlia are quite nice. But the real strength of this little gem lies in the stunning black foliage.

There are four different varieties of these dark beauties in the Old Cottage Garden; all in the orange/yellow/red spectrum that is so well suited to an autumnal palette in this climate.

Dividing the clumps of tubers and creating big drifts of them is on the agenda once they die back in early winter.
