Dahlias, start your engines!

Posted on August 16, 2012 by

Dahlias are beginning to bloom!  Growers, start your engines!

This year I am growing more small and mid-size blooms.  That way, I can fit more on the breakfast table.  Imagine if all those blooms were dinner plate dahlias!  No room for the toast!

As the roses peter out, the hydrangea begin the big fade, you can count on the dahlias to see you through the growing season with big splashes of color and so much energy in the garden.
