| I have been growing dahlias for numerous years (have over 200 tubers planted this year) but up until last year (when I joined the NJ Dahlia Society), never marked the names of them. I would love to know the names of the following:
This is a medium sized red flower that is completely lined in yellow. It is producing many flowers this year [IMG]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l82/wblevin/100_1406.jpg[/IMG] This is a huge yellow flower that had lots of red varigation in it last year - considerably less this year. AA size - gorgeous - but the red seems to fade as the bloom opens [IMG]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l82/wblevin/100_1555.jpg[/IMG] These following two bloomed from the same tuber - gorgeous flowers. Originally, I thought it might be a Vernon Rose, however, it is larger - more an A size dahlia. Last year, all were varigated except one at the end of the season. This year of the four flowers that have bloomed, two were varigated, one is this one color and the one just opening now is literally half plain and half varigated - love all the flowers - would love a name. [IMG]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l82/wblevin/100_1445.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l82/wblevin/100_2014.jpg[/IMG] This is a beautiful large dahlia in soft pink. It produces many many flowers each year. [IMG]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l82/wblevin/100_1756.jpg[/IMG] Last at the moment, is a beautiful large magenta flower. [IMG]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l82/wblevin/100_1756.jpg[/IMG] Any help would be greatly appreciated. Wendy [IMG]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l82/wblevin/100_1654.jpg[/IMG] |

| Hi - copy and paste the middle "TAG", rather than the IMG. That should work! But I think they made need to be resized a bit as they are very large - but oh so beautiful!! Anna |

| You have a wonderful collection there and I love the colors on Bert Pitt. Nice glads in the final photo too! Can't give you a name on any, sorry. |
