What it does
The National Dahlia Society provides dahlia reference information, society activities and shows. Its About Dahlias section separates cultivation, classification, species, naming and plant history.
The National Dahlia Society gives a gardener a route for understanding the names as well as growing the flowers. Cultivation is separate from classification and naming rules, which is useful when a catalogue or show label uses unfamiliar terminology. History, species and a family-tree section add background without turning every query into a growing lesson. Begin with cultivation for a garden task or classification for an identification question. The events route concerns society shows and related activities; it is a separate use of the site from reading the plant reference material.
