Description

My four favourite dahlias, named after our family and where we live. There are two brilliant for picking, with exceptional vase lives (Molly and Perch Hill) and two thick with pollen and nectar to feed the pollinators (Sarah and Rosie). So, as well as being beautiful, this group covers what are to me the two main reasons to garden — a harvest for us and the bees.

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

This collection contains 1 or 2 tubers, or 1 x 3 litre pot each of:
  • Dahlia 'Rosie Raven'
  • Dahlia 'Perch Hill'
  • Dahlia 'Sarah Raven'
  • Dahlia 'Molly Raven'

This can be gift wrapped in our 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.

Care Tips

Support with a stout stick, tie in every couple of weeks. In the South you can mulch deeply and overwinter them in the ground, alternatively, lift and overwinter your dahlias frost-free undercover.
