Dahlia, Kentlands Photowalk, Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA IMG 0341
We currently have a bountiful supply of dahlias in our Kentlands home garden. Some of the benefits for me are that dahlias are very easy to grow and they are very nice for the cut flowers that Chef Dolores likes to have on display in the kitchen.

Roy,
I love Dahlias and they are beautiful as a cut flower. We noticed some being sold at the Farmers Market Today. A

Dolores is in a photograph in one of my recent blogs.
I didn't plant any this year but had sme from last year come back. They were very pretty like yours.

I have several Chrysanthemums blooming, but I don't have a single Dahlia. I guess in order for that to happen, I'd need to plant one.
