Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This lovely Crûg Farm collection from 2700m near Ixtalan in southern Mexico, is a smaller tree Dahlia growing at least so far, only to about 8 feet and with a fairly shrubby habit. The flowers approach violet in color and begin much earlier in the season that's mid-summer for us, earlier if the plant does not have winter dieback. Excellent in a large container or mixed border with your Fuchsias. Sun to dappled shade, good drainage with ample summer moisture. Mulch to protect tubers from frost in the ground. USDA zone 8a.
