National Dahlia Society Annual Show: 2 – 5 September
Admire the best in dahlia cultivation and colour as part of the RHS Wisley Flower Show. More than 100 exhibitors will be vying for top prizes in all classes with their stunning blooms. Each day members of the NDS and the RHS Dahlia Trials Forum will be available for questions and advice.
At the weekend (6 – 7 September), the show blooms will be replaced by pot-grown displays from the NDS, photo displays and two spectacular walk-around exhibits from the National Dahlia Collection and Pheasant Acre Plants.
Many of the display stems will be sold off on 2, 5 and 7 Sept (end of afternoon), with all donations going to the charity supported by this year’s show. Stems from the current RHS Wisley dahlia trial will also be on show, and why not visit the trial itself on Portsmouth Field and vote for your favourite.
