Stunning as always Keith

It amazes me how few flowers I see in this area of queensland. Just a bit south, down past the gold coast, we saw so many more flowers in peoples gardens and along the side of the highway.

Those are really pretty, especially for pink flowers

I do like dahlias, especially the "water lily" varieties...

It would depend on what part of Qld you live in. In Vic they are planted in early Nov. Go to your local nursery and ask about them. Also you will see them advised in Garden mags, they are sold as a tuber.

They are all 16cm across and there varieties a lot bigger also the opposite in size small pom poms table tennis ball size. Small varieties also grow in pots which means they can be brought inside when flowering.
