WOW, that's a nice looking dahlia. We tried to grow some here but didn't know what we were doing. We left the tubers in during the winter and they froze. We may try them again now that we know more about them.

Are you farming them? Cause that is a lot of work for a house display. I think it is awesome.

I sell to the Farmers markets and to different Florists and at the farm. People put orders in for cut Dahlias for weddings etc....It started out with just a love for Dahlias....47 years ago.
