Dahlia problem
 

This year some of my Dahlias are just nudging through the surface in August!
But I think they've been like that for a few months. Is something eating
the shoots? Not had the problem before.

TIA

Quite agree. Our's on our allotment would never be seen if we didn't use
slug pellets. The year after I planted them we couldn't understand why they
hadn't made an appearance by June so I sprinkled some pellets along the row
and a week later up they started to come through the mulch.
