Our photos don't show you the best thing about 'Madame Simone Stappers' - it grows as a dense, rounded, all but self-supporting mound about 2 feet tall that looks more like a small shrub or a peony than a dahlia. With dark-chocolate foliage and radiant blooms, it's stunning in perennial borders - or try one in a big beautiful pot. Preserved by the British National Collection.
