  • My bargain basement dahlias are doing really well too, full of flowers and lots more buds to come. Think I will have to fill a whole bed with dahlias next year, the pictures above are all so lovely and so many to choose from.

    I hadn't realised what a wide variety of shapes and colours dahlias came in.  Absolutely beautifulimage.

    What a beautiful colour the Cactus dahalia is DordogneD and more buds  image 

  • This one is from the same plant and yet so different, the one behind looks even darker. I didn't realise they did that. Also, they are very tall, I expected them to be more bushy, what should I have done differently to make them so?

     image never tried to bush out dahlia but good advice on here appears to be to pinch out growing tips as they form will give a later flower , bushy plant.

     I'm sure some else will also pick up on your question. 

    What an unusual plant! Could it be soil conditions? Still lovely colours image

    ps, ithought they were all different plants...
