Welcome to the CT Dahlia Society's Webpage

Elizabeth Park and Dahlias go hand in hand. It is unbelievably rewarding to have literally thousands of people view and enjoy our Display Garden every Summer. But, there are now only a limited number of members who care for the garden. You can imagine the time commitment involved.

It doesn’t have to be this way. If our membership takes an active role with the success of the Display Garden, many hands would make light work. If we can get enough to help, the time commitment might only be every other week. The work can be done mornings, afternoons or evenings, so the time frame would be according to your schedule. We connect via email so there are not regular meetings to attend.

We recognize that many may not be comfortable with what needs to be done. So, we plan on having several “hands on” meetings at the Display Garden. We will demonstrate the work involved through every stage of development. Learning how to grow dahlias is the goal!
