Big Orange Beastie

070405006-barbarbosa.jpg
Barbarosa dahlia.

Four foot-long towering stalk and big orange-red flowers. This variety would be great for cut-flower enthusiasts.

I prefer to enjoy flowers in the garden -- so I think I'll swap this for a swath of Bishop of Llandaff next year.

Bishop has bronze foliage and a graceful form -- perfect "back of the bed" material. I stored Bishop tubers from last year, but they failed to resprout.
