Last year was one of the worst growing seasons due to the cool, wet Spring.? Our dahlias were about 2 to 3 weeks late and planting in the wet soil was...
First bloom on the first seedlings. Nothing to write home about. Several others have nice buds. Second year MB bi-color red and white has had second flower...

We like Rejmans Polish Kid also. Did you use Carol Ann S in the breeding? It could be a seedling of Polish Kid also. Richard had some very good seed parents...
We like Rejmans Polish Kid also. Did you use Carol Ann S in the breeding? It is a bee pollinated seedling of Ms. Kennedy. I would guess that the bi color came...
Sandy and I look forward to seeing you and your wife at the national show. We hope we have some time to sit down and talk breeding. We will be up at our...
Just in case you start wondering about slow group email delivery later today, the following may be the cause. And, I can only hope the outage last for hours...

A third year seedling with decent form, but apparent fading at the petal edges. The red is more of a fuchsia red. Size is BB. Question: Discard? Discussion...
It is difficult to cull one you like. Show varieties in the BB size are generally very good. Determining factor would be looking at the competition in the...
