've managed to collect seeds from:
Giants Kenora Valentine and Trooper Dan
Medium semi / cactus Eastwood Moonlight and Peach Delight
Small: Ryecroft Zoe, Red Balloon (+S.D.)
Miniature: Marston George Spanish Dancer
Collerette: Garden Friends
Waterlilly: Edwin's Sunset
Pom: Willo's Violet.
The smallest no. of seeds is Kenora Valentine with 2 but I'm chuffed to bits that we have had any with all the rain we have had here.
If I get any seedlings to grow, should be quite a wide variety. I'm hoping that some of the deep dark colours come through on the seedlings, had quite a lot of shades of Jomanda this year. Be nice to have something a bit different.

Tel Have you managed to collect a lot of seeds from Garden Friends? I collected a few, there is a lot of seed pods still on the plants. But if I collected all of them, I would not have room on the allotment for anything else.  |

Guess what it's absolutely hammering with rain. Got work tomorrow. So running out of seed collecting opportunities.

Fab colours moonlight. Going to get out the computer and put it all on a spreadsheet. Have all my notes written down.
I really like our taste in dahlias.
What did you think of Clearview Audrey, peach delight and Weston flamingo ?
I am really tempted to try a medium cactus or semi cactus. I think I will do a few of them as singles and see.

Very boringly. I take each individual dahlia crop it to make a square, resize it to roughly the same size as the others give or take the pixel. Then I copy and paste each photo into a table in a word document, take a screen shot. Crop it down to the edge of the table and then save it as a column.
Told you it was boring.
