Had an idea how to display Dahlia's differently. Just had a gem of an idea but did not know if it would work or not but had a bash. Have to say that it looks stunning. During the day with the sun on the bowl the heads look like jewels. During the evening the candle makes the heads glow. I am very pleased with the results. I am sure you will be too. The photos don't do them full justice

That is a beautiful display of Dahlias, well done. Good idea. I leave the Dahlias outside cos they seem to be full of 'forkers' or ear wigs in English. I just hate seeing them beasties crawling out of the lovely flowers.

Really gorgeous! :)
oh wow! that's stunning. what a lovely idea. when i saw the top of the picture....i said to myself....uh oh....bottle garden. but it's actually very nice!
thanks for that idea :)
They are in a Gold Fish Bowl. You can get them from small (6"dia) to gigantic (36"/38") They are so versatile. The one in the picture is the medium one. 1' high, 18" dia. Despite their name I don't recommend them for fish.
Lazy Daisy. That looks beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

I agree, that is absolutely gorgeous! Would look stunning on a dining room table with the candle as a centre piece for and intimate dinner. Devine!
What a lovely idea LD and as you say, the candle looks really good. Will definitely have a go at that :)
