We are introducing 14 new varieties this year. If you click on the picture of the flower, it will enlarge. I may add more pictures of the new introductions later. We have grown many, many thousands of dahlia seedlings over the last 25 years or so and our new varieties have many generations of selective breeding in their pedigree. We believe that dahlias need to be vigorous and easy to grow and we have selected strong growing seedlings for our breeding lines and most of our new flowers have 6 or 7 or generations or more of our breeding. Our varieties tend to grow taller on average than those introduced by other breeders and can handle extremes of weather more easily. Along with taller plants comes longer stiffer flower stems and that is very useful for bouquets and other uses. |
