Hi,

Next year I would like to grow a few August flowering miniature dahlias in
my borders. I particularly like the deep burgundy red varieties and have
only found 'Jo's Choice' which appears to be scarlet. Any recommendations
for plants and suppliers would be most welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Deville check your search engine punch in Dahlia directory lots of
suppliers of dahlias. Once you grow a Dahlia you will be hooked on
growing them every year. I have been growing dahlias for 11 years.

I think the ones you are referring to to grow to about 9 to 12 inches and
have small fully double flowers like miniature roses.
They come in a range of colours white pink and red,
Try the link below to see if this is what you are thinking about

The best miniature dahlia I have come across is Moor Park, (I think it's
called, a deep burgundy and is a very tight pom pom and good enough to
have in a border.

Whilst on your subject David, we have "Bergers Record" a Ferrari red cactus
as you might expect, and wondered if there were any more named after F1
drivers?

Would these be F1 Hybrids by any chance?

(Hoping this isn't too poor an excuse for a joke).
