Aztec Gold
We only saw a few showers of rain today... thank goodness. It was to have been heavy rain for most of the day. It has been very grey a gloomy.
This is another Dahlia we have in our new garden.
The dahlia was declared the national flower of Mexico in 1963. The tubers were grown as a food crop by the Aztecs, but this use largely died out after the Spanish Conquest. Attempts to introduce the tubers as a food crop in Europe were unsuccessful.
