I've just put my order in - Rebecca's World, City of Rotterdam and Fabula (plus other summer bulbs!) The others already planted are
David Howard, Vancouver, Roxy, Renoir and Famoso.
Only a drop in the ocean compared with your list - but I'm hoping for some colour in amongst my perennials. ;D

What were those that you had to cull then. ;D[/quote]
Gateshead Festival, B,J,Beauty, Blyton Royal Velvet, Trengrove Millenium, Ruskin Respectable
These were on my list, that I kept changing but in the end really couldnt afford to buy anymore this year
The Sir Alf Ramsey that I got were from a local garden centre but they were packaged up by Taylors

Thanks Lou and Tel, This new place is a dahlia heaven for info, well done to you all. Tel if you are after Sir Alf, I can help. I currently have 4 tubers started that are showing life. I personally dont really grow too many of them so any cuttings I get you can have. They are from good stock as in June Davis's stable. Perhaps we could do a trade if you have any spare Marston Lilac ? I lost all mine due to weather, they didn't get lifted in time. Bit of a sod really but I was not well at the time. Mark  |

Moved this from the old forum, something that Steve posted, Not wishing to sound big headed, but this is now the best dahlia thread on the net. Just to say although my own interest only goes as far as the dark leaved varieties this has to have emerged as the best dahlia thread available on the internet today! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve In Ilkeston |

You will have to have some leaflets printed with the forum address on Tel and leave them on the tables at shows  |

Mark Hi Mark, that is a deal. No Problem, in past years Sir Alf hasn't really thrown as many shoots as I would like, but most of these this year have 2-3 eyes already which is promising !! |

Only a drop in the ocean compared with your list - but I'm hoping for some colour in amongst my perennials. ;D I had a look at your selection Geranium...some lovely strong colours and some nice soft pinks too (Renoir). I couldn't find City of Rotterdam....what is it like?......I see you got your purple/white one.......I'm looking forward to seeing them growing in your borders later in the year |
