Dahlia Honka Dark
Dahlia Honka Dark
Dahlia Honka Dark is a distinctive dahlia tuber that flowers with deep, dark petals set off by a bright yellow centre. Planted outdoors, it brings a refined contrast to borders and summer planting schemes, and it’s also a lovely choice if you like to pick your own cut flowers.
