These flowers are not dahlia's, but are also part of Jourdan's collection. Many of them have special meaning to our family because the seeds came from Jourdan's Great-Grandfather who passed away a few years ago. Grandpa Del was an enthusiastic gardener, who often gave away beautiful bouquets to friends and neighbors.....I wonder where Jourdan got that from??

(JWW - Are these the ones from your former yard? If so, they may have once belonged to Ardith....I can't keep his flowers straight.)

Wow, they're SO BEAUTIFUL!! The thing I love about dahlias is that they're all SO different--not just color, but petal shape and everything. Those are all so pretty. I'm not sure which ones are Ardith's--I was wondering the same thing as I was reading your post. I can't remember--we only saw them bloom two or three times, I think. I could be wrong. I am fairly sure they weren't white. I think they were a pink??? Sorry I'm not too much help. :) Beautiful flowers, though!
