Sunday 25-02-24 – Day 2 of The State Dahlia Show of Victoria
The humble digs of the Mt Waverley Community Centre were today full of floriferous florals that visitors from around Australia and the world came along to appreciate.
There were people of all ages, including competing home growers who proudly waxed lyrical to their guests about the particular qualities that the highly experienced judges were looking for in terms of size, colour, form and health that winning blooms in their prime so need to be.
Within 30 minutes of opening, it was standing room only !
Most outsiders just think this is about flowers the size of dinner plates, but that is merely one category of many that include balls, cactus and miniatures, single stems and mixed vases.
So sit back and enjoy this little peek at just some of the blooms on offer:
FUN
FUN WAS HAD BY ALL !
