For those who asked for more pictures.....

There are over 80 dahlia plants in the front yard. You can see that only a few are blooming
but soon this area will be bursting with color.

Oh, Lorena, they are beautiful. I think you should let hubby see all the posts you get on his dahlias, honey chick! He is a master gardener.
Smoochies,

Oh, I love dahlias! I was surprised one year when I planted dahlias here in the desert and they loved the heat! Well, not the 115 heat - but they did fine in the 100's. I can't wait to see these all in bloom!

I love Dahlias so much that I named a puppy Dahlia, and called her Dallie. Aren't they just the most gorgeous flowers?

Sharon said...

Beautiful flowers Karen, your DH did a wonderful job. Do you ever cut them to bring in the house? I couldn't resist.

Wow! Karen! That is a lot of work, but they are beautiful!!! Wish I could go for a stroll and look at them in person. Your front porch also looks amazing!

Hi Karen, these dahlias are beautiful. I planted some this year but no flowers yet. The person that gave them to me said they were small and might not bloom until next year. Your hubby has quite the touch for gardening, your yard is stunning@
