Postcard :: dahlia three



Dahlia 'Karma Fuschiana' - the tubers were from Jane. I love this dahlia, the colours are so intense they positively glow. Very uplifting on a damp grey day.

the rain drops look so light against the vivid pink of the dahlia.
wishing you a lovely week.

This photo of the dahlia with the added effect of raindrops is beautiful. I may have already told you, cerise pink ones are my favourites. x

Thanks so much for leaving that lovely message on my Blog - I have just paid a fleeting visit to yours and will be back. Flowers, dogs, the sea - all of my favourite things!
Wilma the lurcher is still hanging on in there with her puppies, and my daughter and I are moving to Building-Site-on-Sea tomorrow, so we only have tonight to get through!

Gorgeous photograph! I am enjoying using my new camera (thanks for the recommendation) but I think it will be a long time until I get results anywhere near as good as yours!

That's gorgeous and I keep saying that I don't like dahlias, but you proof me wrong every time.

Oh DIVINE!!! I want one. Now! I used to be oh-so-sniffy about dahlias but am now a total convert since inheriting some at this place. But we don't have day-glo pink ones....no sirreee. jxxx
