Many thanks to Judith for her excellent presentation on pest control at our last general meeting! For those who weren’t able to attend or would like a recap, here is the information: Pest Control Strategies The “big” growers in our club have offered some ideas as to how they manage the pest problem with dahlias….

A reminder to club members that Thursday’s meeting is being held outdoors at Connie’s house (directions provided to club members in Teresa’s email). Members of the general public who would like to attend should send an email to vdspublicity@shaw.ca and we will send you the details .

Novice growers encouraged to submit their blooms! Entry is free to all (you don’t need to be a member!) Please come by to see some of our best growing efforts with these spectacular flowers!!

    Congratulations to VDS members Phil, Teresa, Paul and Connie for their showing last weekend at the American Dahlia Society National Show in Portland Oregon. Phil and Teresa won 5 ribbons , Paul won 2 Head table awards and Connie won 5 Head table awards and Best Bloom in Show.  

One of the many great things about our society is the opportunity to learn pretty much whatever you care to about dahlias; from how they are grown to how to show them and judge them! Many thanks to Connie Young-Davis for hosting this event and providing a delicious dinner afterwards!!!
