Dahlias have been blooming for weeks. My backyard looks very colourful as it should, in autumn. My colours are just not typical orange, red, yellow... Week ago we had a dinner at our summer cottage. The summer cottage is in the middle of a pine forest (=no flowers) so I decided to make some bouquets already at home.
..materials for the bouquet..
I have 4 different dahlia cultivars:
Dahlia 'Lilac time' from Schiphol airport
Dahlia 'Twilight time' from Chiemgauer Alps, Southeast Germany
I-have-no-idea -Dahlia. I bought this as violet - it was something else...
Dahlia 'My love' from Schiphol airport
Bouquets ready to go
