I’ve got to remember Dahlias for next year!

I grew this dahlia last year and I never did get around to finding more like this one to plant this year. I just loved the type of flowers that this dahlia produced. It’s quite pretty isn’t it?

I had planted this flower in my front boulevard. It’s a short dahlia – only about two feet tall, so it fits most small garden beds quite nicely.

    I’ve run into your site about 4 times now in the last month search for information on entirely unrelated things so I thought I’d say hello – your flowers are gorgeous – I am still working on keeping my Peace Lily alive before I start trying to raise orchids! Thanks!

    I’m so jeaolous. Can’t get anything to grow here. This year I started getting some nice roses. Unfortunately, my neighbor dumped two puppies on me (they knew I do rescue) and they have pretty much wiped out my roses…. Chewed them, thorns and all. You have to love Beagles. Thankfully, the roses are tough and should spring back next year. I just miss my flowers.
