Default Dahlia in flower on Xmas day

Took a few of pictures of the tree dahlias yesterday, the Imperialis
which had flowers on on Xmas eve looked so sorry, but the other species
one D. Tenuicaulis still had flowers that were not to bad considering
80mph gusts on boxing day.

Our D. imperialis outside had buds on but they never flowered, so yours
