This morning I came upon sweet kitty that was hit by a car. He belonged to no one and no one to him. He hence became known as “Tangerine” and rests at the farm.

Sweet dreams Tangerine. May you forever frolic among the flowers.

If Orange Globe had a sibling it would be “Oranger Globe”!! The real Orange Globe is on the right and is a beautiful dusty rose color. On the left is a first year seedling from a Boom Boom White seed parent and I’m betting an Orange Globe pollen parent. She’s a keeper for sure!

Yesterday was the Tennessee Dahlia Society show in Chattanooga and holy moly there were a ton of amazing blooms. We judged for more than 5 hours straight to get through all of them. I was in a great judging team with Adele, Amanda, and Jay, led by Senior Judge Buddy Dean of Hilltop Dahlias. To say I learned a lot is an understatement! My brain is overstimulated and oversaturated. I need to sort through all I learned and there’s no better way to do that then go spend today in my dahlia field. Got to enjoy them before the season ends.

Dahlia genetics are so interesting!! On the left is Sidehill Claypot bred by Ray Phillips several years ago. On the right is my 2nd year seedling. They look like siblings but they are not. I know they don’t have the same seed parent because mine came from KA’s®️ Keltie Rose but Ray’s did not. They could have the same pollen parent since we both grow some of the same varieties. But I think more likely is that Sidehill Claypot was the pollen parent. The form, size, and petals shape and count of my seedling are almost identical to Sidehill Claypot and have some of the orange highlight but more of the KA’s Keltie Rose rosy undertone with a raspberry color. So maybe my seedling is Sidehill Claypot’s daughter?!? The world will never know but I love them both!!

Dahlia season is the best!!!
