Dahlias anyone?

One of mine out today, don't know which variety.

 

No name for this one either

 

nice dahlias jazz, i especially like the yellow and red one. regards nijinski

 

Gorgeous!!

 

@nijinski The post you are referring to was posted in 2006, and the person hasn't visited the site since 2010, so you may not get an answer ...

 

It is an old post but very opportune ! I have grown Cactus Dahlias for the first time this year - a lovely plant I would like to grow more next year , so IDs of the ones above is appreciated or any other suggestions you have ?
I grew these 3..............
Dahlia cactus spectacle orange
Dahlia cactus purple gem
Dahlia cactus Jura white ( this was yellow ! so the tubers must have been mixed somewhere )

 

best to choose ones you like I reckon. Plenty of choice here, rooted cuttings available (next Spring) for around £2 each

thanks kristen it was a bit much to hope for an answer i suppose. regards nijinski

 

Google will probably turn up information for you, but it is on the National Dahlia Society's site:

http://www.national-dahlia-collection.co.uk/en/edinburgh-syn-edina.html

(Their site doesn't tell you much about each variety though - but you can buy it from them!)

 

i'd like to show a couple of mine, i can't remember the names though.

 

Here's a couple more.

 

Here are some of mine...

 

And some more..

 

a beautiful display of dahlias intel.

 

Beautiful!

When is the best time to lift dahlias in uk?
