@pirl: I look forward to seeing your bluetiful. I was trying to keep mine kind of hot in color range and I'm trying some new petal types to me. I do hope they all have a chance to bloom this growing season we won't go into deep discussion about my early frost and my feeble attempts to save them.

at least I got tubers out of all last years. I'm looking forward to
@psudan and
@Melissamaeday lists. They always have so many beauties. Besides you encouraged me to try Citron du cap as I've been eyeballing for the last few years and said this year I will try it out. I fell in love with a few from the gent from Italy with all his Joweys as well. Beautiful blooms everyone has shared.
PlantsAnimal: I posted because I know the dahlia people have been good resources for me in the last year and winter is way too long when you love your blooms. We love seeing what each other is growing.
I'm not seeking anyone's approval, I'm planning to plant what I enjoy.
Sometimes you love what you plant, other times you don't and change is good. Gathering information from others on like plants is a help from staking correctly to tuber production and what to expect. Everyone lives in different areas and plants behave way differently depending on weather and soil. Then there is the self chosen color palette or shape Etc. I'm glad to share what I'll be planting, maybe you'll join in too with what you'll be growing.
