Karen Collins and Debbie Fugate, both of Port Orange, responded last week to our call for readers' Beautiful Blooms.
Karen submitted the picture of the pink and white dahlia, noting, “I have many different kinds of dahlias, which I love. This is one of my favorites. I have had to work to figure out how to plant them and I have found pots do the trick.”
Debbie, a frequent contributor to Beautiful Blooms, sent the picture of the red plumerias. “I am especially fond of my plumerias,” she wrote, “They come in many different varieties. They love the warm sunshine and have a sweet scent. These were actually grown from a seed pod that a friend of mine was fortunate to get on her plants.”
