Dahlias
Since late 2024 Poulson has been focussed on dahlias after being mesmerised by images she captured in the public gardens in Epernay, France. She now seeks out dahlias grown throughout Australia and on her travels overseas. With over 42 distinct species and roughly 65,000 registered cultivars globally the inspiration is endless. Living in South Australia, she is fortunate to have access to several dahlia flower farms and thanks to the knowledge shared by the farmers and local growers she has now started growing a 'small patch' outside her studio.
