That's fine Hortico and I respect the fact that you are scientifically blessed., but I am not. Perhaps some Forum members may enjoy the challenge or at least recognize a particular flower similar to a plant that they are growing. I realize not everyone would want to participate - but for me who has limited knowledge of plant names it is interesting to be able to put a name to these Dahlias, some of the Forum members are very knowledgeable and willing to share this gift with others like myself.
Thank you for sharing these lovely photos, I have several the same, I wont show myself up at tryng to photograph them . but I bought mine in packs of three from morrisons. sadly no names . but I too am at a loss at what t hey are AND would appreciate anyone being able to put a name to them. so come on , lets have suggestions!
I have no idea either being new to all this but they are beautiful. I love dahlias! I only have one haha and I hope I don't kill it when I have a go at overwintering it this year!
Love them all GD2 4 and 5 defo on my list for next year if I can find there names
Last week I entered thease in our local show
And was very pleased to get third, the standard was very high.
great fun
Well, GD if the scientifically blessed one doesn't know, what hope is there for the rest of us.
Ah, your replies made me laugh - thank you - what a tonic you all are. Cheers!
As for your entries in your local show Chrissy the gardener - you're a dark horse, so thank you for sharing - well done and what a beautiful display. Care to share some of your exhibition secrets with us?
You're making me want to plant dahlias again. Stunning!
Well done Chrissie!
I'm plant scientifically blessed - they look like Dahlias to me
