From the Burgio Garden.
9.5×12.5 pastel enhanced watercolor. Original available. The last in a series of 4 from a large sheet of God- knows-what that I quartered. I have no idea what the paper was or how long it’s been in the house but at least now, it’s done. Dahlia is a genus of bushy, tuberous, perennial plants native to Mexico, Central America, and Colombia. There at least 36 species of Dahlia. Dahlia hybrids are commonly grown as garden plants. The Aztecs gathered and cultivated the dahlia for food, ceremony, as well as decorative purposes, and the long woody stem of one variety was used for small pipes. In 1872 a box of Dahlia roots were sent from Mexico to the Netherlands. Only one plant survived the trip, but produced spectacular red flowers with pointed petals. Nurserymen in Europe bred from this plant, which was named Dahlia juarezii with parents of Dahlias discovered earlier and these are the progenitors of all modern Dahlia hybrids. Ever since, plant breeders have been actively breeding Dahlias to produce thousands of cultivars, usually chosen for their stunning and brightly coloured flowers. Dahlia plants range in height from as low as 12” (30cm) to as tall as 6-8 feet (180-240cm). The flowers can be as small as 2” (5 cm) or up to a foot (30 cm) in diameter. The great variety results from Dahlias being octoploids (they have eight sets of homologous chromosomes, whereas most plants have only two). Dahlias are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Angle Shades, Common Swift, Ghost Moth and Large Yellow Underwing. The dahlia is named after Swedish 18th-century botanist Anders Dahl. (information from Wikipedia) Complete 2008

As a photographer, some days you get lucky and all of nature comes and poses for you. With my camera in hand, when this little guy posed for me on a gorgeous white dahlia. Isn’t this a stunning display of white and shadows, accented by that punch of orange-yellow that cradles the bee?
