Dahlia 'Mrs Eileen'

Dahlia 'Mrs Eileen' is a branching, tuberous tender perennial cultivar with bright orange flowers, as large as 6-8 in. wide (15-20 cm). This Dahlia belongs to the Formal Decorative Dahlia classification.

As with all dahlias, this plant flowers from July until the first frosts of fall. Frost blackens its foliage, and its tubers need to be overwintered in a dry, frost-free place.
