Description
Dahlia 'Haresbrook'
Height x Spread: 30cm x 30cm
'Haresbrook' is an eye catching Dahlia that bears vivid magenta single flowers with a bright gold ringed red eye above bronzed leafy foliage. Regular deadheading will encourage more prolific flowering until stopped by the autumn frosts.
Forming part of the modern wave of bee and butterfly friendly Dahlia that are attracting new gardeners to this popular genus, 'Haresbrook' delivers pops of bright, cheery colour in a 'hot' border and also makes a super container plant. 'Haresbrook' will thrive in a fertile, humus rich well-drained soil in full sun. In colder areas, lift, dry and store tubers frost-free once autumn frosts have blackened the foliage. In milder areas tubers can be left in but protect the crown with mulch.
Available for Mail Order from May - End of July
