My dahlia's finally gave a great show. My favorite is Shockwave, It was a late bloomer but the show was worth the wait. The grouping of 4 dahlias was easily at least 18 inches. The plant was very sturdy and stood at least 5'tall.

A new one from seed, bloomed away, It looks somewhat like Pooh. I may name it Poohish. It made a beautiful bunch of tubers, and I tried to save seed. Sorry the picture is a bit fuzzy.

Who Dun It is always a show stopper and a great tuber maker. Most of the plants grow 4 1/2 to 5 feet tall. Blooms are 5-6 inches.

Louis Meggos were stunning.

I didn't get a picture of Gitts Crazy, but they were very prolific and beautiful.
There are so many that I love. I have ordered about 50 more. I just can't stand it, so much work, but so beautiful.

I love to read the comments and see the beautiful dahlia's, Thanks so much.
I didn't realize my photo was of Gitts Crazy from last year.
