Dahlia Fashion Monger

Description

Fashion Monger is a collarette dahlia which are distinctive because they are a single dahlia but with a difference. The central disc is encircled by a ‘collar’ of small florets and this variety comes in a wonderful rose/raspberry pink with creamy white edges. Dahlias can be started off in pots in the greenhouse from January to March or alternatively planted direct into the garden when the fear of frosts have passed.

Tip: Store in a cool, dry and frost free location if planting later in the garden.

Aspect: Semi shade to full sun, better in the warmer parts of the garden.

Soil type: Happy in all types of soil that are free draining.
