Santa Claus Dahlia

This is the second time I have purchased this dahlia from Breck's.  The first purchase (about 5 years ago)  resulted in nothing...zip.....nada........the tubers never came up.  Breck's refunded my money.


Early this year I ordered "Santa Claus" again.  I am so glad I gave it a second try!

Such a lovely color!  Doesn't it make you think of Christmas?
 I wish I had it blooming in December, so I could use it for a Christmas centerpiece!

Do any of you grow this dahlia?

    Stunning!
    You'll have to talk hubby into a greenhouse--so you can keep that beauty going until the holidays.

      No greenhouse for me...summer gardening is enough! I don't want to continue thru the winter... I like the break!
