Well, my babies are ready to open anyday now and I'm just not sure of their names! Everyone seems to know the names of their kiddlings (accept the rookies lol)
Anyways, I'm looking for a bit of help from anyone here that may be able to idetify what I'm growing. The images are below.

Redd, I only see two buds at that link. The best chance to get an ID is to wait til the bloom is nearly fully open. Looks like a lovely bright red or ornage, so post again when it's open.

Are there others?

RE: My Babies

It's on the way. (the opening that is...it's about half open right now. I'm waiting til it's totally open. I"m thinking it's a Kenora Sunset. I'm not 100% possitive yet though.

As for the others....I'm not sure how to post all the pics on the same page. (unless i do it one post at a time....) or can I keep adding images?) Like I said...I'm pretty green when it comes to some of this stuff lol. TRYING like heck to get used to it. But I truely do want to know!...I'm hoping I can post the other 2 pics. I have one that's full bloom and my yellow one...well...it's JUST starting to open. So I figured I'd wait til it was open also lol.

The more photos the merrier! See my other post under your "White" post here in the dahlia gallery. I'd be glad to help you figure it out, but I am no champion when it comes to computers or cameras.

ReddScarlette, Yes, you can keep adding images.
If you have Photobucket , just copy the tag and paste it on to your message and then hit enter. At this point you can type something if you wish then hit enter again and add another image, hit enter, another image and so on .

We would love to see your photos, so give it a try.

Ok....my red w/ yellow is fully bloomed now (and I have to retake the pic so you can actually see what it is lol) but I also have a pic of my yellow. I'll probably have to wait for that one to be full bloom too! But man oh man I don't want to have to wait that long! However I have a feeling it's going to be larger than my white! ;)

I'll be sure to post a pic when it's in full bloom!

Well done Redd! And beautiful buds and foliage you have got there. The wait from bud to bloom is so anguishing, especially with a new variety, you just want to see the prize ASAP!

RE: My Babies

I know! Waiting for those dang buds to open...yeesh, these plants sure have taught me how to be MORE impatient! lol

This morning it's about half open. Hubby is going to take some pics for me today when we get more batteries for the camera. Then I can actually show you my red and yellow :)

It is very exciting though! I'm sure the neighbors think I'm crazy! lol

(and yes...photobucket seems quite wonderful!!! Thank you all for the advice :)
