Possibly my new favourite Dahlia this year...'Negroni Sunset'
First few blooms opened last week & now being tested for vase life in the kitchen. What do you think? A keeper to grow more of?

Hi Rosie, I found this post by searching this dahlia. I’m competing adding to my collection. How did you find the vase life please?

Hi Sophie, It was good 5 days+ if cut at the right stage. Not as long as the ball types but certainly good enough for arrangements for events etc. Lasted well in the garden setting too. It was larger than I expected but that might have been due to the high rainfall! The colour though is very useful for Late Summer/Autumn & I'll grow more next year. Best wishes, Rosie
