Is that a dalia? I used to have some that came up every year--the winter wouldn't kill them. They are beautiful!!! Pretty color!!!

That IS a pretty one! It looks like it has long stems & is excellent for cutting too. Do you know what the name of this dahlia is?


Life can be crazy. Digging in the dirt keeps me sane.

Thank you constantgardener.

I have to go out and look at the tag but it is dark now. I think it said Babaloyn.

That Dahlia is gorgeous. I got some breast cancer ones this summer. A portion of the proceeds go to the foundation. They don't seem to be too happy though. I've moved them to a sunny area. They were in a partial shady area. Keep us the good work. You seem to have good luck with them.
