| Gorgeous, now wasn't it worth the long winters wait? Steve in Baltimore County. |

| They are beautiful! I have a pink one just like the one on the left of your picture and it is my favorite! |

| Really beautiful! Is there a reason for having the walter halfway up the vase? I thought that keeping the vase full made the pressure of the water keep the stems more open. I think that was a Martha Stewart tip in general about cut flowers. I do notice that when I cut dahlias sometimes they last and sometimes they don't. |

| Ha! No reason for the vase only being half full - except for my impatience maybe! |

| Lovely sight to behold. I'd like to see the pink-edged one facing the chair back in the first photo, but all are beautiful alone, and certainly as a group. Do you know IDs on these beauties? |

| I think this is all of them. Most taken a few days earlier or different blooms than the ones in the vase. Sorry the pictures are so gigantic! Crazy Love

| Delicious! Were I an earwig, I'd dive right into them all. They are all beautiful. Foxy lady never looked that foxy here at all. Well done! |

| Stunning - I am so jealous, and sad: my dahlias have yet to really get going. |

| Anna did you get stuck with a cool season? We had that last year. Furnace on in August after our usual fleece-bearing June. Not so great for dahlias, but there are always some that pull through eventually. We've had the best year out here in a long while and still, despite starting early, they are just coming into boom time right now. I think they have they're own schedule. Crossing fingers for a late summer for you Quebequians. |

| I guess it is time to do the birdbath again. I have some unusual colors this year. |
