Dahlias have been a floral favourite for generations and its easy to see why. Their bright blooms, vast variation, and heart-warming history make these flowers special in many ways. Dahlias were the favourite flower of the court of Queen Victoria and Marie Antoinette. When the Dahlia was initially discovered, it was declared a vegetable, due to the fact that the Flowers and Tubers are edible. Dahlias peak from Mid-Summer, which is later than a lot of other flowers making them a great way to extend your summer flower displays. Dahlias can be found in almost any colour; however, you will not find a blue one. Not only is the Dahlia the National flower of Mexico, but it is also the official flower of both San Francisco and Seattle. The first Double Flower Dahlias varieties were bred in 1815. Dahlias are officially part of the Asteraceae family. This flower family includes some favourites including Asters, Daisies. Sunflowers and Chrysanthemums. These flowers are classed as part of this family due to their astral appearance. The word Asteraeceae derives from the Greek word for star. This is a reference to flowers that resemble a star with surrounding rays. The bright blooms of Dahlias make them attractive to pollinating insects. Dahlias have a history of winning awards. The breed has received over 100 Award of Garden Merits by the Royal Horticulture Society (RHS), making them a winning addition to any garden.
