Now for flowerjen I think the very prettiful Caribean Fantasy. This dahlia bloom changes continually to different combos of red and white as it ages.

That reminds me alot of the one I had last year. 'Pooh' is what it was called and I loved it!

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

That was fun matching rouge fleurs to the peoples who posted that they like red flowers^_^

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

Pix yupper Pooh is very similar to Wheels. The difference is it has yellow tips. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/167347/
Methinks you may be a closet dahlianut ^_^

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Yup, I think you may be right. If I could only learn how to store them right just half of the time....I might have more!! lol

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

NICE!!!!

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

That can be a toughie. My conditions are SO different than yours. So much depends on your humidity and everyone has different storage environments so what works for one won't work for another. I think one of the dahlia societys near you might have some tips. Here is the list of the ADS affiliates. http://www.dahlias.net/adscontacts.htm

Very nice Dahlianut! : )

Thomaston, CT

I read an article---a zillion years ago---about someone who stored their dahlias in a fridge at 40 deg.---that's the only thing I haven't tried---mine rot or shrivel---but I'd love to save the mocha one ----guess I'll try the veggie crisper!

New Boston, NH

I just read an article not sure where perhaps Fine Gardening and this writer RAVED and RAVED about Spanish Blue Bells so much so I was thinking of getting some?

Atkinson, NH(Zone 5a)

Fine Gardening has a video about storing dahlias. Just watched it the other day.
