Our visit to Steven Wedd’s dahlia farm and shade houses was fantastic.

His dahlias were about two weeks from Dahlia Show time but there was a wonderful array of styles and colours on display. We couldn’t photograph them all.

And the shade houses were resplendent with blooms of caladiums, orchids, spathyphyllums and a wondrous array of many many indoor-type plants. An absolute joy to behold.

We met under a very old fig tree that was under-planted principally with bromeliads that ranged in size, colour and habit. A wonderful visit.
