It's so worth growing dahlias
I don't think any other flower provides such a glorious display as dahlias. Well perhaps peonies but they only last one to two weeks at most whereas dahlias bloom for almost a month. Then the frost gets them. In warmer climes, they would bloom even longer.
The big ivory coloured one is Cafe au Lait. The backside of the petals is blush pink. No wonder this dahlia is such a beloved bloom of dahlia growers. I don't know what type the other ones are, they were tubers that I saved from last year and they weren't labelled. Beautiful all the same.
