Join Joann and Allison chat with Steve Lloyd of the Dahlia Doctor. Steve shares with us his dahlia history as well as how he turned to evidence-based research to grow them better. Initially what started as a quest to better his own growing, turned into The Dahlia Doctor Research Library.

Before meeting, Steve asked us to come up with a question he could use his research system to find an answer. Joann asked, "Can line breeding stabilize color in seedlings?"
