Nice looking bloom. One more bloom and you will have to change your name.

Thanks, Viking! I was wondering what to do about the name, Ha! And I've now had three and a half blooms (the Rebecca Lynn is so tiny that I'm not really counting it), so now I guess I'm a journeyman? or maybe an apprentice? HaHa. Today I looked over a list of Dahlias that grow well in the South for next year. It's never too early, right?

That Hulin's carnival is still lovely. It really opened up almost all the way today. It's about 4" across, maybe just a little more. Thanks for being so supportive!
