White and Lavender Dahlia


I found these dahlia flowers hidden under some bushes by the school entrance, and they seemed to be in perfect shape still, despite the cold weather we were having this week.


It always amazes me to see blooming flowers in November.  I guess they escaped the freezing rain and chilly wind hidden under the bush.


I was happy to see these dahlia flowers even though they were a little beaten up by the cold.  We can't expect much when it is already in November.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Enjoy other entries at Mosaic Monday!

  6. These last flowers are more precious than those of summer.

    These little flower have a a beautiful color. As I see the leaves in the first shot, they are chrysanthemums not dahlias. Mums are very hardy flowers.

  13. Hiya IC/BC,

    They may be bedraggled, but are still very photogenic. In fact, enlarged to its full capacity over two monitors, it is fun 'travelling' through the wet petals.
