Formby Dahlias: George Harding’s Tasmanian Treasures

Moose’s Formby Collection: Royalty from Tasmania

From breeder George Harding in Tasmania, Australia, the Formby line is all about regal presence and refined beauty. Known for their bold forms and striking colors, these dahlias carry themselves like they were born wearing crowns.

Current standouts include:

  • Formby Monarch — majestic and commanding, fit for a king
  • Formby Pearl — luminous and elegant, with a soft royal glow
  • Formby Duke— Regal, bold, and Moose-approved garden royalty.

And with more Formby introductions on the way, this collection will keep expanding into a full royal court.

Why gardeners (and The Gardening Moose) love Formby dahlias:

👑 Regal forms and strong garden presence

🌸 Bred in Tasmania’s unique climate, making them hardy and reliable

🎨 Beautiful blends of color with timeless appeal

🌍 Rare and coveted varieties, straight from an Aussie master breeder

Moose Translation: Formby dahlias are like the monarchs of your flower patch — stately, dramatic, and guaranteed to make your garden look like it’s hosting a royal parade.
