Hi, the last couple years I’ve fallen in love with Dahlia‘s and had success growing two of them last year, over the winter I went a overboard, and ordered a lot. The ordering coincided with us purchasing a home (in zone 9) with a backyard really well suited for growing them. As they came in, I started planting. I had never heard about gall until I started reading this community board, and I found this community board after I started planting. But it’s not just about the gall, I’ve been following the planting advice from the different companies that I ordered from and while a few of them mentioned needing to being aware of rot and mildew on the tubers, through this community I am getting a thorough education on learning everything that can go wrong. I’ll be honest, I have planted many dozens of dahlias that around my yard. They’re all coming up and looking so beautiful, so full of potential …….So here’s my question to you…. the talented growers in this community….. Where are your online resources that can teach me everything about Dahlia’s, because I need to get up to speed quick! Here are some pictures of my inspiration, and therefore my increasing panic. Thank you in advance!

This is an automatic reminder regarding r/dahlias Rule 3:
When reasonable*, posters should make a good-faith effort to identify which variety/varieties are shown in their photo(s). If you don’t know for certain, please say so. Someone will usually know!
*Common-sense exceptions to this rule will be honored, such as if the photo does not contain a blossom, or if your photo contains large volumes (such as in wide field shots).
If you’ve already done this, thank you! No further action required.
If not, please add a reply to this comment and confirm if you know the name of your dahlia variety/varieties shown in the photo(s). Alternately, if you’re uncertain of the variety name(s), it’s ok to say that, too.
