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! 'Romeo' has single, deep red flowers with a dark centre above rich, burgundy foliage. Long-blooming from June to fall.
