      I'm growing 'Twinings After Eight' after I saw it in a trial at Wisley a few years ago. I agree, it is beautiful. There were plenty of them in the shops in spring, so you shouldn't have much trouble finding it next year.

        Hi Two Sheds

        National Dahlia Collection sell cuttings (they've a website) I think it was bred by one of their gardeners. If you go on their site you can request a catalogue - I've just got mine for 2010.

            I need to have a browse. Looking for a red leaved Dahlia with coral flowers.

              I saw one of these ('Twynings After Eight') at my local Wyevale the other week, about £6.99 for a 2 ltr pot.
