Let us introduce you to an organic Dahlia named Bashful since she may be too shy to say hello. 😀 This is one of many Dahlias we are trialing this year in a variety of beds and microclimates on our farm. Bashful was one that appealed to us online, but it is more beautiful than we imagined. Even this shot does not do it justice. We have used it in many of our bouquets recently and are looking forward to growing it in the future. We have much more about Dahlias to share with you later.

We are big fans of dahlias. This brilliant scarlet Dahlia coccinea has been a delight in our garden for the last few years. Although the plants appear dainty, they stand tall and sturdy amidst some strong winds. They happily bloom throughout the summer and early fall. | kts
