Inspired by the doomed lovers Romeo and Juliet, this series is ironically and strangely called the Happy Single Series. At least our love affair with burgundy-leaved dahlias will continue. Collect the whole series for a Shakespearean extravaganza! 'First Love' has single, apricot flowers with a yellow flush and a thin red accent around the centre of the dark-brown heart. The foliage is burgundy. Long-blooming from June to fall.
