November Presentation: Growing and Propagating Dahlias
Speaker: Bruce McClure
The ancestral Dahlia was discovered in its native Mexico towards the end of the 18th century and imported to the Botanical Gardens in Madrid. Much has happened since then and the genetic potential provided by that ancestral Dahlia appears to be simply inexhaustible.
