Remarks from the Weekly KAVB Flower Show - Lisse

[Lvandelft]

A few hybridizers are trying to create dahlias for culture in pots.
Here's a nice example of such short plants:
Dahlia China Dwarf     

[Lvandelft]

a few other bulbous plants

Hippeastrum reticulatum                   
Crocosmia Mistral                         
Crocosmia seedl

[Lvandelft]

and finally there was a vase with nice flowering stems of

Crinum moorei

[annew]

That's a nice apricot crocosmia seedling. They look lovely in the garden with blue/purple asters.

When the first Colchicums are shown on the tables autumn is not far away 
I read on the forum that for many of you there was hardly summer weather this year, so hopefully my pictures will cheer you up

Dahlia Nagano is an eye-catcher.

.... and they did Luit, wonderfully

Me too   Thanks Luit.

Crocosmia 'Buttercup' looks so sunny, and Dahlia 'Nagano' shouts (late) summer 

I like Dahlia 'China Dwarf' too.  It shows some of the elegance of D. coccinea.
