Midwest Dahlia Conference
Serving the Dahlia Societies of the Midwestern U.S.
01/14/08:
Annual Spring Meeting and Plant Sale Information
|
The Midwest Dahlia Conference was established to promote more widespread interest in growing
dahlias in the Midwest. The desire to bring dahlia growers of this section of the nation into
closer and friendlier contact with each other is facilitated through the holding of an Annual
Midwest Dahlia Show, each year sponsored by a different member society and held in a different part
of the Midwest.
- 2007, hosted by the Central States Dahlia
Society (also the National Show)
- 2006, hosted by the Mahoning Valley Dahlia
Society
- 2005, hosted by the Elkhart Dahlia Society
- 2004, hosted by the East Liverpool Dahlia and
Floral Society
-
2003, hosted by the Dahlia Society of Ohio
- 2002, hosted by the Greater St. Louis
Dahlia Society
- 2001, hosted by the Dahlia Society of Wisconsin
The Midwest Dahlia Conference also is striving to promote further education
and understanding of the dahlia and its culture to its member societies and to the public.
Midwest Dahlia Conference Annual Spring Meeting And Plant
Sale
The annual spring meeting and plant sale will be held on June 7, 2008, at Eby's Pines resort in
Elkhart, Indiana. Click here for more information.
Annual Midwest Dahlia Show
The Annual Midwest Dahlia Show will be hosted by the Cincinnati Dahlia Society on 12-14 September
2008. Please reserve this date on your calendar. We are excited about having the
Cincinnati Society host this event, especially due to the fact that they hosted the very first
Midwest Show in the early 1930s. More information will be posted here as it becomes
available.
