Café au lait

Today's the day ....................... to re-introduce

Having managed to kill off my magnificent dahlia Café au lait , a couple of years ago, I sent away for a new one this year - and this is it.

You can't really tell from this shot, but it's enormously big.  It must be 10ins across and the size of a dinner plate.  So it is indeed very impressive - apart from one thing.  This is the one I used to have which, as you can see, is a completely different colour from my new one?

Strange that - and just as well I like this one, even more ...................!
