Flower ID
 

My wife has a bunch of flowers that I like and would like
to grow some but do not know what they are.
Can someone please identify them .

Also any other info, easy or hard to grow, seeds available ?? etc

I know very little about flowers.

To my inexperienced and untrained eye, they look like Dahlias?

Well I am much more inexperienced and untrained and I have lost my
specs somewhere but I agree, however I must say I am not familiar with
the variety.You will be pleased to know you could hardly find anything
easier to grow from seed or tubers.

Suggest you start with tubers - always a good selection at garden
centres or B&Q and such like. They even thrive in poor soil.

Clever clogs, correct; but I have not seen colouring like that before,
I like it.

I have a number of different varieties here. Unlike all my
neighbours, I planted them very deeply, on a bed of sand, tuber and
then soil. I never lift them and they survive!!!!! Mind you, not a
shoot is showing yet but we had a vicious winter.
