The nurseries in San Diego are putting out their bulbs for Spring
planting. I took a picture of this attractive and unusual specimen last
year at a Dahlia Show. Today I bought an assortment of bulbs that
included this one. I was astonished at how many different types of
Dahlias there are. Many do not resemble each other in the least.

If you really want some interesting varieties take a look at these US
sites...

JEEEEZZ!
I've never seen such a HUGE variety of Dahlias in my life.
I've never grown them before but I understand that they are VERY easy to
grow in San Diego. So, I'll give them a try.
Thanks for the URLs.
