Default Dahlia disaster!


Mine were at 6 feet when they were blown over.



Holy smokes! Were the flower stems nice & straight? If so, maybe you should
be supplying local florists. :-)


Dinner plate sized dahlias get huge... More people should grow dahlias in my
oppinion, they are easy to grow and bloom all summer into fall... butterflies
love them as well. The one gardening chore other then the privet hedgr trimming
DH does around here is dig my dahlias after the first frost for me. He's done
it since the year I was PG with our son, I wasn't feeling well that year.
