This is for every beginner

You just need to love Dahlias! CDDC runs a small but fun competition during the CDDC Show. We are calling it the Rainbow Competition to celebrate the delightful array of dahlias we all know and love.

How to enter
Register HERE, and bring along your best bloom. CDDC will supply the vases.  Then simply place your dahlia in the colour section to which it belongs. This competition will be judged by secret ballot and by the public so there are no official judges unless a tiebreaker is needed.

The winners of each section will be brought to the top table where a judge will select the top bloom of the champion of champions.
