Thank you ;D...Managed to get a couple of pics, which are not very good. They always put the dahlias where the morning sun is coming in from the back of the marquee, making it impossible to get any decent detail.

Scrumpy. I did a vase of 5 of ball dahlias - Mary's Jomanda; a vase of 3 med semi/c 2 Kenora Sunset and one Carston Suntan;
2 vases of 3 Weston Spanish Dancer.

Finished covering two of the dahlia beds, just the Kiwi bed to cover, leaving that until some of the buds start showing colour.

A lot of the buds on the seedling Terrycotta are half open, just hope there are enough buds for the seedling class at Harrogate.
