Happy Friday everyone and welcome to another colourful edition of flower of the day. Today’s flower is the dahlia as I was able to spot a few different coloured dahlias yesterday evening in the city.
These flowers are native to Mexico and thrive on warmth and sunlight, rewarding even modest care with a long season of blooms. Their colours can shift subtly with changes in light and temperature, giving them a lively, almost changeable character.




My favourite flower. I love dahlias!

I remember seeing so many of these when I lived in southeast Texas for a few years. The colors are wonderful! Glad you get to see them where you live.

They are a real breath of fresh air, sure to lift your mood. Pretty cool to see them in Texas. I always imagine it to be dry and dusty there.

West Texas is what you often see in the cowboy movies – dry, arid, dusty. East Texas is the hill country – lots of green fields, flowers, and ranches.
