Open-centred Dahlias

This bulletin follows the completion of the trial of open-centred dahlias at RHS Garden Wisley. There are 13 different classification groups for dahlias - only those with open centres (single-flowered, collerette, miscellaneous and single orchid) are featured in this publication. This bulletin gives details of the trial, including cultivation notes and photographs of the 30 AGM plants.
