Last Spring a friend who exhibits Dahlias had a plant of Neon to try it proved to be a great variety producing exhibition-quality blooms. relatively short growing at around 1.m with ramrod stems and nonfading flowers. Definitely worth trying both in pots and borders. Produces good tubers but is a bit shy with throwing cuttings, having said this those that are produced are easy to root.

Young dahlia plants are shipped in late April/Early May, when you receive them they will need growing on inside until the end of May at which time they can be planted outside.
