Dahlia Honka Dark
The Honka-range dahlia that stands out the most: Dahlia Honka Black. The reddish black petals around a yellow heart bring a magical twist to your garden. This orchid dahlia type gets the nickname ‘Windmill’ dahlia from the petals that look like the whips of a windmill. The orchid dahlia is a relatively new type that is lightly scented and attracts bees and butterflies. Plant your dahlias in a pot or in the border after the last frost and give a little bit of water. Dahlia Honka Black will flower abundantly from July and sometimes will even flower up until the first frost. Dahlias are not hardy, so it is important to put them inside, take them out of the ground or to cover up carefully.
