thanks Teri and Candee...misplaced my camera for a few days and did not take any pictures. Dahlias are great as summer flowers. They have been hit or miss in my garden. This one that I have planted in my tomato patch is one that has come back yearly. The dinner-plate size dahlias are spectacular, but since they require staking, I don't include them in my garden. I know myself well enough that I will always forget to stake them. If I had a bigger garden, I would certainly plant a lot more dahlias since they come in so many shapes, sizes, and colors.
