A much loved ornamental UK bedding plant with a secret double life. Originally domesticated by the Aztecs (the same people who brought us sweetcorn and pumpkins) for their tasty sweet potatolike roots, Dahlias first came to our shores not as a flowery bedding plant but as a promising root veg. Delicious, versatile and totally immune to blight. Who could ask for more? www.suttons.co.uk/Gardening/Vegetable+Seeds/James+Wong+Homegrown+Revolution+Seeds/Dahlia+Yams+Plants_239370.htm
