Bishops Children Dahlia Seeds


Bishops Children ( Dahlia )
SF261 Bishops Children ( Dahlia )
Bishop's Children is a warm-toned mix of solid and bicolor blooms in shades of red, orange, yellow, pink, and purple. The single and semi-double, Peony-formed flowers include plenty of bicolors and two-tone blends, some gaily striped, others shading from one hue to the next like a tropical sunset, and still others a rich, deep solid color. But what makes these blooms really extraordinary is that they arise atop black foliage!
This informal, bushy plant reaches 2 1/2 to 3 feet tall and about a foot wide, with leaves so dark they appear black. The 3- to 4-inch blooms are held above the foliage, forming a colorful canopy atop the neat plant. Stunning in the garden and long-lasting in the vase, Bishop's Children may become your favorite cutflower as well as a showstopper in the border and bed!
As its name suggests, Bishop's Children is a descendant of that most famous of all Dahlias, Bishop of Llandaff. Grown extensively in England (where it's one of the most popular plants of all time), Bishop of Llandaff is certainly magnificent, but we think that its "children" are even more impressive for modern gardens!
