Glad to hear it's done well, we will have to swap cuttings, I have one that
has reached 8 to 9ft outside and has semi double purple flowers about 5
inches across.
All I have been able to find out about them is that they are supposed to be
Hybrid Tree dahlias.
I will post a picture on alt binary.pictures.gardens if and when I can take
one, that is if there is anything left of the plants.
