hello, new to the site and thought i'd share some of my seed grown dahlias from the 2014 season. Theres a lady who works at a restaurant down the road from me and she loads the property with beautiful named variety dahlias, last fall she cut down all the plants and dug her tubers but left all the stems and seed heads lying in the gardens, I was lucky enough to notice this and asked if i could help clean up the yard a bit! So I ended up with a plastic grocery bag full of misc dahlia seeds. Sure it would be great to know the name of each dahlia that produced each plant that I grew but the situation is not that perfect. I did end up with some decent plants though, nothing that will be winning awards anytime soon but nice flowers that were fun to look forward to and enjoy when they bloomed. I will be growing as many new plants as space allows this year as well and can't wait to see what I get!
the one and only monarch I've seen in a few years anywhere in CT picked my garden and a dahlia I grew from seed, pretty cool!
