Thanks......I had lots of colors, but this one seems to be my favorite. Red orange yellow....... They seem to like the south side of my house where nothing else seems to like..???Beats me why. Gee I have so many favorite.

We're all Flower Hogs.huh? Now they added taxes to our seeds in The state I live in, which makes me more glad I am a swapper. Goodness I could never afford all the things I play with......(Seeds)

Barb,that is beautiful. Someone sent me some seeds last year and I did not plant them. I am not good at growing seeds inside.
Did you start it inside or did you direct sow?
I grow mine in pots and every year just bring the pots into the garage. In the summer I pull the pots out and I plant some coleus in the pots and I have instant beauty. LOL They started growing leaves last week.

What does "lifted" mean? I'm very interested in dahlia posts as the Edna C. dahlia was named for my beloved friend, Edna Comstock, and was developed by her husband, R. Paul Comstock.
