Bishop of Oxford Bronzeleaf Dahlia

Bishop of Oxford delivers an abundance of coppery-orange blooms that really stand out against the dark bronze foliage.

This exciting collection of Dahlias features stunning colours atop dark bronze foliage. The visual effect is amazing because the flowers simply pop while the foliage acts as the perfect backdrop to show off the flowers blooms. Originating from Mexico and Guatemala, these were the flowers of Inca kings and despite their royal origins Dahlias are among the easiest plants to grow in the garden.

They are a wonderful source of cut flowers and will provide a veritable cornucopia of colourful blooms for your bouquets from mid summer until the first frost. Easy to grow as they are, Dahlias are susceptible to cold so be careful not to plant them too early and be sure to dig them up after the first frost and store them in a frost-free place.
