Hi all:
This is the first year that I have Dahlias. In Spring I bought tubers of several varieties but along the Summer I was very disappointed as they grew very few or the blooms were quite small. But a few weeks ago I found several with huge blooms. After the initial bloom I thought they would start to die but they are showing more and more blooms.
They are georgeous - at least to me - and I'm reading all I can about feeding and overwinter them. Next season I will try to get more of these large varieties.

You all have such marvellous varieties that it's impossible to pick just a few.

Sorry, but none of these have a name.

Regards

Carlos
