My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.
Does anyone grow the dahlia 'Giraffe'? It's an older cultivar and is classified as NX (Novelty Double center). I saw a photo, and it looked beautiful. Is it a good grower? Does it make a good cut flower? What size are the blooms? Thanks!
It's a really different bloom- we used to grow it before we started to specialize in AA sized ones. Pink Giraffe is nice, too. The problem with them both is they aren't very good keepers- but they put out loads of nice unusual blooms- about 4' diameter & kind of striped yellowish orange & darker bronze for Giraffe-- Pink Giraffe does the same kind of unusual markings only in light pink & a bit darker pink. I seem to recall that they had really good stems, too which made for good arrangment flowers. Clack's lists Giraffe w/ picture but it looks more like Pink Giraffe to me.
