I hope they grow right and end up looking like this-



Does anyone have any experience with these flowers.

3. This site has good tips:

http://www.oldhousegardens.com/bulb.asp?Cat=SD&page=5#tips

They sell bulbs so the top half of the page is Dahlias they sell but scroll down for the tips. There's a separate page on Dahlias for the South, if you happen to live in the South.

5. Wow ! Beautiful flowers indeed.

I'm not exactly a passionate gardener but when I was

younger I was in charge of the trees,flowers,vegetables

in our "huge" 1 and 1\2 plot in the suburb where I grew up.

I saw gardening as a chore back then but I've learned a

lot of interesting things.I planted roses and all the most

common flowers that you can find in any standard suburb

garden but as I watch your picture I'm truly amazed.

That and Orchids are my favorites.
