Dahlia

Southern Vancouver Island

Spectacular is the only way to describe the colourful dahlia plant...one I enjoy seeing until the frost ends its brilliant display. Dahlia facts: Andreas Dahl (after whom the plant is named) regarded it as a vegetable rather than a garden flower, but interest switched from the edible tubers to the blooms when the first varieties with large, double flowers were bred in Belgium in 1815. ~ The Flower Expert
