'Bishop..' Dahlia question

Posted by alina_1 MD, 6/7 (My Page) on

Hello everyone,
I bought Dahlia 'Bishop of Llandaff' and 'Bishop of York' tubers this spring. Planted them in the garden, eastern exposure, direct morning sun till 1-2 pm, dappled to bright shade for the rest of the day. Sprouts are about 4-6" now. And they are green. Will they turn bronze later? Or my Dahlias are mislabeled?
Thanks in advance,
Alina.

I don't remember my Bishops having the dark foliage till they matured a bit. You won't really know though until they bloom. I thought York was wonderful - a very hard to describe color and I know why Llandaff is still the #1 seller - what an outstanding plant.

Thanks, that is what I wanted to know - the green foliage is normal for young plants.
Hopefully, I got right plants!
