Nearly 700 selections are included, complete with notes on their history, awards, and cultural peculiarities.

Thorough appendices with resources on dahlia societies, nurseries, and gardens complete the book.
Gardeners at every level will appreciate the author's clear and useful explanation of the classification schemes for dahlias, which can often intimidate even determined enthusiasts. Every dahlia lover will gain years of reference and enjoyment from Bill McClaren's definitive encyclopedia.
