Hello,
Being around on the forum for a few days i stlll didnt introduce myself.
My name is Edwin, 46 years young and i live in The south of the Netherlands and came around this forum surfing the web looking for information about Dahlias.
This is the biggest hobby for me and my wife but also growing a lot of other different (annual) cutting flowers and 12 m1 sweet peas.
Also all our veggies, fruits and herbs come from our allotment of 400 m2 including a greenhouse of 8 m2.
I hope i can get some more info here about how things are done in the UK.
And hopefully i can be a contribution to this forum
Iwill post some pics of my allotment tommorow, but have to see what the best place is to do that.
Greetings....

Learning is a two way or more thing here, so although you will pick up tips on gardening in UK, you will be able to give us some tips about gardening in Netherlands.

Hi all,

I am new to Dahlia growing - I started last year. I have an allotment and grow and show vegetables in my local show.

I have browsed this site for a couple of weeks

I intend to grow and show Pompon dahlias - just pompons no other dahlia.
