We think all of our dahlias are special, but Bishop’s Children has an exceptional pedigree, derived from Bishop of Llandaff. Dressed in red vestments, these single and semidouble flowers look ready to administer the sacrament of Confirmation. Bold shades of maroon, scarlet, and cherry make a statement in any garden and are especially attractive to pollinators. Growing nearly 40 inches tall, this mix of warm-toned blooms and contrasting dark foliage adds striking beauty to flower beds and bouquets.

  • Versatile variety thrives in containers and raised beds
  • Sturdy stems and prolific blooms make excellent cut flowers
  • Begins showing peak color as summer blooms die back
