    Oh my word you guys!!! (as Laura would say) I know this is your business - you have been very open about that, but this was over and beyond! Your generosity for others and the help you give us is unmatched! This may basically be about gardening but you and Aaron show us so much more! The way you raise your kids, the help and generosity to your family and friends are inspirational and teach us along the way so much more than gardening! but thanks for the gardening too!!!! LOVE IT!!

Before I started watching you and Aaron, I didn't even know what a Dahlia was! Thanks for opening up my world to new flowers! Have a great day everyone, say a little prayer for those of us in Florida.

Thankyou for taking the time to do this for us. I'm new to dahlias, grew a few from seed this year but the drought here in the UK took them early. I've no idea if they will come back but I too will be mulching heavily and crossing my fingers for a return next year!

    For the viewers that really enjoyed the way Laura displayed her Dahlias on the table for you...I would encourage you to try & find where your local Dahlia Society may he having their shows right now. Dahlias are cut & staged to display on tables. After the 1st day of the judging, the 2nd (& sometimes 3rd day) are then open to the public for viewing. Each table is is set up per variety as well. So all of your Dinner Plates will be together, all Poms together, all Balls together, etc. So this will also help in not only identifying types/varieties but may help you in knowing & showing you what you are most drawn to.
    A lot of Society's also have a division to enter for Baskets & Floral Arrangements which can be quite stunning to see!!
    The world of Dahlias is so amazing (I am a 4th generation grower/shower - so have been in it my whole life) with so many colors, shapes & sizes. They vary from the huge Dinner Plates (some which can measure up to over a foot across) down to the Migons (a small daisy like flower that are only 1/2 to 1 inch in size).

    We got our first frost here in Minnesota last night. A local, award winning dahlia grower in our area, cut a nice selection of the dahlias he grows and brought them in to the flower shop where I work. They are for us to use and to sell to our customers. He didn't want them to go to waste and wanted to share the luxurious beauty with others in our area. One variety that I recognized right away, thanks to watching your videos, was 'Pooh'! My word... that dahlia is so beautiful and unique.🥰 I love that your video came out today so I can try to identify a few more. All of them are such an impressive flower!

    Also, in the dinnerplate pastel mix, you mentioned Labrynth, but that bloom looks more like penhill watermelon to me. One of my favourite dahlia varieties. But I might be wrong for sure!

    Mostly off topic..... I'm looking to get a Hose link so I was searching for when you installed them on your channel..... Came across where you installed 5 in the South garden..... TWO YEARS AGO!! I cannot believe you have had this going this long. So this is it's 3rd season. And how beautiful!!

    Amazing dahlias! I dug up our dahlia tubers last fall and stored them and that didn’t work out sadly, not sure what I did wrong. However, I guess I missed part of the tuber in one spot and it survived with no mulch and came up on its own mid summer lol. I’m in zone 6b and we have pretty cold winters. I was shocked.

    My vote on the large purple unnamed one would be Thomas Edison. Love those collarettes and need to try next year!

    Outstanding presentation! I would take a wide angle photo and have a large poster made and hang in the cut flower shed. You would have a beautiful memory of gorgeous dahlia’s. Thanks for all your videos, GA and coffee is my go to morning inspiration.

    Laura, have you dried any of these? If so what type of drying method did you use? It would be fun to see if they do dry and how do they retain color. That Noel one would be fun for Christmas. Your flowers are just so beautiful.

    Tell Benjamin hands down Zinnias for the win!!! Dahlias? Too much work. Zinnias have just as much variety, even on one plant and a longer vase life! Watching all the effort you've put into your dahlias, Laura, has convinced me with my very short zone 4 season that zinnias are the way to go!

    One of each please! Absolutely gorgeous, and I especially love the purple colored ones! My dahlias really put on lots of
    Leafy growth and not many blooms and I’m thinking it’s because we had so much rain this year. Is there a fertilizer that would help
    Promote more blooms? Flower tone?
