I went to the Dutch dahlia trial fields last autumn, briefed to choose no more black dahlias, but my-oh-my you just can’t say no to this one. It has marvellous sculptural buds and huge, spiky sea anemone flowers.

All dahlia flowers are edible, scatter their petals on salads for flavour, texture and colour.
