Oh Canada Dahlia

12 years ago

Saw this dahlia at Canadian Tire. The picture was very similar to Fir and Ice; the dahlia I've been searching for -white with red stripes and in some cases red blotches. I know I should have gotten one, but the leaves and stalks were badly frost bitten. I was wondering if they would recover. I can't find them on line. Any help appreciated.

So sorry I could not find one for you - of Fire and Ice. I may have it, but sadly a bunch of tags fell off some tubers and...you know the rest. If indeed some of my unknowns bloom Fire and Ice in my garden this summer - I will make extra EXTRA sure that you will get a tuber next season.

In the meantime - but again, only for next year, Canada's Botanus is offering Santa Claus, and let me tell you it looks much like F&I.

I know that you did your best. Looking forward to the next season and I'm sure you will do your best. Have a great summer gardening. Hopefully it will begin to warm up in Newfoundland. Sunny but very chilly today. Thanks again.
