It’s snowing here. Even though we got very little snow this winter, I am over it. Here are more of my dahlias #dahlias #flowers #mygarden
One of my favorite dahlias - this is Caitlyn’s Joy . Perfectly formed, vibrant, pink, and almost in this picture looks like a little bit of a purple center. I think this deep magenta colored dahlia is called Diva! Perfect because she’s fabulous! I don’t remember the name of this dahlia . It has pink and orange shoes and a magenta circle surrounding the very center.
