Goodbue summer!

I think that a pre-requisite of something being over is that it first
must have started

I have less than 10% of my dahlias in flower, I finished up taking 10
weeks to plant, should have been done in no more than 5, I was
expecting a good August and Sept to let them catch up a bit, but with
night temps down as low as 48f, and the cool days, lack of sunshine
and now more rain and gales the poor things dont stand a chance.
The supports proke on some of the tree dahlias and I have had to pick
them up, some must weigh around half a hundred weight and more, next
year it will have to be wires and more heavy canes (8ft+) problem is I
need to stake around 80 plants.
I'll have to see if I have any young Ash poles growing.
