Talk:Dahlia

Hello I am looking for information regarding Dahlia Imperialis. The common name is Tree Dahlia. They are beautiful Dahlias that grow as tall as my house. Unfortunately there aren't too many growers of this type of Dahlia on the web. I am looking for different colors and styles of Tree Dahlias. Please investigate the Tree Dahlia so that more people will produce these wonderful plants.

Images

The images are stunning, but there are too much, which slows down the loading time of the page. I think a few (4-5) examples should stay (different flowering types) and the others should go on the variety's own page. Ninja neko 16:59, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

popular varieties?

In a previous version, the images of dahlias were labled as being popular. I have removed the "popular" reference. The most popular dahlias and the most "winning" dahlias can be different. I am not privy to what wholesalers sell, but because I compete at dahlia shows, I do know what the most competetive dahlias are and what wins Best of Show. These statistics are available through the American Dahlia Society and their annual Classification Book. --Sfdeborah 21:37, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Edibility

I'd like to see something in the article about the edibility of dahlia tubers and history of consumption. They are currently being promoted as an edible crop in the UK by James Wong. 79.79.250.194 (talk) 13:08, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
