Dahlia Honka Black

Not quite black but very nearly. I tried dahlias a few years ago, following all the advice etc but, although I love them and the possibility for dramatic colour combinations, they are just too much trouble. Except for this one which I overwinter (forget about) in a pot and it just keeps reappearing and looking fabulous.
Another busy day working in the house and catching up with laundry in the morning and working in the garden in the afternoon. Weeding and watering mainly and reorganising my borders.
