Kelvin Floodlight has really been pumping out the big blooms this year. It has six 9" blooms on it currently and several more buds.

Gorgeous!! Particularly, the Show N Tell! One of mine will be blooming in the next week or so. There's some opening started.

I picked my 1st Kelvin Floodlight bloom a few days ago, not as big as yours but still nice. My Sonic Boom finally opened a couple of blooms too and a few more new ones are about to pop. I'm still drooling over your Show -n-Tell! Looking forward to getting a tuber from you in a couple of months.

Keep those pictures coming!

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Phyllis, I am glad you will finally get to see one of your favorites. Its one of my fav's too. All of my dahlias have bloomed except Envy and I don't think that one even has a bud on it yet. That one is a new one for me and I really wanted to see it.

Mandolls, I am surprised that your Sonic Bloom is just now starting to bloom. I think that one was one of my earliest ones to bloom. Kelvin Floodlight has been blooming for about a month now and has really been putting out quite a few flowers for one that is so big.

I googled the dahlias on your list that I was not familiar with and I am very excited about a lot of them. Has Formby Kaitlyn or Gladiator bloomed for you yet? I would love to see pictures of them.

Thanks

Linda :)

I like the first pic best. Love to see them on the bush--and multiples are a bonus.

Linda, I got everything started late this year due to focusing on my expanded vegetable garden, so everything is blooming later than I usually get.

I dont have blooms yet from either of the ones you mentioned. And I have found it that at least 4 of the tubers I got in the trade last year were mis-labled, (I know I got some mixed up myself so I am not worried about it). I hope I get blooms from everything so that I can at least make sure the ID's are correct, and can send you an amended list. We are dipping down to a low of 39 tonight, but then the lows go back to the 50's for a while, so hopefully everything will have a chance to bloom.
