If you enjoy gardening, it is a sure bet you will love dahlias. When planted in late spring, they will begin to bloom in August and continue until frost. When the flowers of spring and summer are gone, dahlias come into their prime.
Dahlias are grown and shown in organized shows throughout the world. The Dahlia Society of Alabama is one of 70 Chapters of the American Dahlia Society across the United States and Canada.
