This one grew most vigorously and I had two out of my six this color. It is taking a large pot than al the rest to start up the tuber. I buried each plant in the six pack to the top, just the last leaves showing and they really took off and made great tubers. Inexpensive way to get a good dahlia stock. :-)

This is lovely GT...these colerettes are the best....cuttings are very easy and will multiply your stock quite quickly.....:>)

Oh, I didn't know they would go from cuttings! I've been just planning on splitting the tubers in the spring. I've six of these and I bought six stargazer dahlia to build up another form. :-)

That's what I love about Dahlias, no matter what size they are the blooms are outstanding both in form and color. This is a prime example.

They are all perfect, each and every one. I had poor results this year, I'm going for better soil and more feeding next year. Trying to increase the stock of those tubers I'm collecting, which are still all rather small.
