I'm having my first go from seeds. I have a few seedlings from Mersey Charm and a few from Cafe au Lait, with pollen parents at the discretion of the bees. Likely they will be compost Dahlias, but you never know.

As I don't know many of your varieties, I guess that you don't know many of ours. Mersey Charm is a miniature cactus.

Cafe au Lait is a large decorative - not really with the depth to show, but my favourite anyway.

That is the fun of it though, will there be a beautiful show bloom, or a full compost bin. ;D
