"In this universe the night was falling,the shadows were lengthening
towards an east that would not know another dawn.
But elsewhere the stars were still young and the light of morning
lingered: and along the path he once had followed, man would one day go
again."

Arthur C. Clarke, The City & The Stars

I've just pulled up the dahlia tubers from the ground and am left
standing with three large bunches of them. What to do now? Just read
that I should have left them in the ground until the first frost
killed off the stems, but too late for that; here in Tennessee we
might not have a frost for weeks yet. Anyone know how to winter these
babies? In peat moss? Dry? In the refrigerator? In the basement?
In a place of honor on my mantle? Maybe I could get my dog to sit on
them and incubate them until spring. . .

I'm also interested in how to grow hosta and daylilies from seed and
would appreciate some advice or referral to a source of information.

The indoor cultivation, planning for next spring, choosing bulbs for
forcing in a few months -- all are wonderful aspects of autumn
gardening, as well as the protective job of winterizing the garden.
John Donne said, "In heaven it is always autumn."
