Re: Hot Weather/Gardening style


Mary:
Try some of the dark foliaged dahlias like Bishop of Llandaff and Japanese 
bishop.  The foliage is a lot more attractive, and in my beds at least they 
seem a little more graceful than the thick stalked lumps that most dahlias 
are. Of course you need to have flower combinations that strong reds (both 
of the varieties I named are reds) will fit into for that to work.
