Want to learn more about gardening and dahlias? Consider having a live presentation given to your garden club or other organization. We have three different presentations available – each about one hour in length but can be customized to meet your needs. Linda and Jeff Laine of the GCDS will participate with your group, sharing their experiences and educate you about dahlias with the aid of scores of photographs of their gardens. The Laine gardens have been featured in a variety of national and regional magazines. See one sample photo below.
