I know we all love a peony, but if you calculate it, peonies give you ½ bucket of cut flowers per square metre over one whole year — a truly hopeless production score. Compare that to this selection of dahlias, almost peonies in their luxurious curviness and curls, but bountiful cut flower croppers, they are as near to dahlias-as-peonies as you’ll ever find.

All dahlia flowers are edible, scatter their petals on salads for flavour, texture and colour.

This collection contains 1 or 2 tubers each of:

• Dahlia 'Café au Lait'
• Dahlia 'Penhill Dark Monarch'
• Dahlia 'Penhill Watermelon'
• Dahlia 'Café au Lait Royal'
• Dahlia 'Perch Hill'

This can be gift wrapped in our badges.exclusive hessian sack, with ribbon and a Sarah Raven gift card. You will be able to add this to your basket once you begin the checkout process. To add a gift message to your order, simply fill out the details at the delivery stage of the checkout.

Please note: only items which are showing ‘in stock’ can be gift wrapped.

Bulb collections and mixes – what’s the difference?

Collections are supplied with individual varieties packed into separate bags so they can be identified when planting out. Bulbs in our mixes are supplied jumbled together in one bag, to give a looser, more natural feel.
