The Dahlias Stole the Show
In my last post I told you of our trip to Point Defiance – the zoo, aquarium and surprise at the rose garden. But of all the gardens at Point Defiance I think the Dahlia Garden stole the show.
Sorry I couldn’t just pick one! 🙂 For Cee’s Flower of the Day.

They are lovely flowers, but they encourage earwigs into the garden!
Best wishes, Pete.
I love dahlias but only have a few in my garden. I’d like to have more, earwigs or not. Whether I get around to planting more is another story!
I would say, the dahlias definitely did steal the show 😀 😀
Yes indeed! 🙂
Wow! Your dahlia flower photos made my day. Thanks for sharing! 🌺
Oh thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed them!😊
Beautiful photos. I love dahlias.
Me too. 🙂 Thanks so much.
Beautiful shots! Nature never lets us down!
Thanks John! The dahlia garden was amazing! There’s still beauty in the world! 😍
In this upside down world, at least these flowers offer a pop of color!
I loved growing them in Oregon. Thanks for sharing these beautiful photos.
Thank you. 😊 I have a few in my garden but need to plant some more.
One of my favorite autumn beauties
Me too. So many beautiful colors and varieties!
Wow! So pretty! I had a student from Mexico named Dahlia once, which I always thought was a pretty name. 😊
Dahlia is a pretty name! 🙂
Why pick just one?
Exactly! 😊 I was thinking that Cee’s Flower of the Day challenge might mean one flower. But I decided to take it as one variety of flower. No harm in that, right?
