Thanks pirl,

I too have many photos. However if I restrict myself to only great flowers and only great photos, that falls to a handful. If we are to build this forum maybe we could have it renowned for quality rather than size. I am sure yours are better than mine.

Hi Dave,
I added a contribution to the ideas forum and it is off for review today. I see this as one of a series where we can inform with photographs and text and make a "how to" of growing beautiful examples of the best of blooms and healthiest of plants. The best articles I have seen on here have text and very simple, clear step by step photos so I think if we follow that concept we will be on the right path.

I hope we can create interest, as I am mindful that only about 6 people have taken the dahlia badge, while some 204 have the daylily badge.

I would rather grow one beautiful plant and grow it well, than twenty indifferent ones.

This is another newbie for 2013, working title Dahlia "Carlo". It is new from seed so, I didn't let it flower much and missed the top of this bloom as two of the petals have gone over a bit. I am hopeful with this one over the winter.
