In addition to this forum, DG provides you with many ways to learn more about Dahlias, find sources, and share what you know with others. This thread is intended to help you explore those features and provide a permanent reference tool with helpful links and shortcuts.

Getting the most from PlantFiles

PlantFiles has hundreds of Dahlia entries and tons of information - here are some tips to track down what you're looking for:

1) The cultivar-finder for Dahlias lets you browse all cultivars alphabetically: http://davesgarden.com/pf/finder/index.php?sname=Dahlias&sub...

2) The Advanced Search lets you find the Dahlias that meet your specifications (section, bloom color, size, height, etc.) http://davesgarden.com/pf/advanced.php?sname=Dahlias (Note: You can - and should - skip past any detail sections that you don't care about.)

3) Here are some general search and browse tips that may be helpful: http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/608659/

If we've missed a Dahlia, here's a link to add a new entry: http://davesgarden.com/pf/add.php

Within any entry (one you added, or existing entries), you can add your own comment, photo and/or ZIP code report if it grows well in your garden! The screen shot below shows you where to look for the ZIP code field; the links to add an image or comment are directly beneath that field.
