Dave is well-known internationally for what he has contributed to the National Dahlia Society of England. He served as editor of their publication, “The Dahlia Annual” and he is currently the NDS Treasurer Emeritus. He is recognized for his photographic contributions and for his ability to capture images of the dahlia with great acuity, both in the show and in the garden.

Dave has been on this side of the pond on multiple occasions and he has spent enough time with us that we feel comfortable calling him our friend. It is an honor to present David Reid with an ADS Silver Medallion. He is one of the giants in the dahlia world.
