I brought seeds back from a mountain side in Tamil Nadu. Dahlia Imperialis. They come well from seed, if you can get it.
They can grow to 6m high.
They also grow from cuttings, stems or tubers. They make a LARGE clump. I am about to chop one out as it is pushing over the corrugated iron fence and sheds pollen over the washing line. But is is a lovely clear pink against the May(late Autumn here in NZ) sky.
There's a list of suppliers on the RHS website.
I noticed to-day that mine are in bud. Fingers crossed the mild weather holds on a bit longer. I'd love to post a photo of it in flower.
interested in Tree Dahlia,colors -white,Red, &Pink! Where can buy or get couple of tubers/
cuttings please? Does anyone have these? Would you be kind to donate /sell?
thanks
