I began the "complain here" thread because it was cold and rainy and I got a near-record breaking stretch of unusually dry, warm weather for my efforts! Maybe I will jinx things and get some much needed rain, if I say this has been the best dahlia planting weather ever in 16 years of growing.
Almost all dahlias are in the ground and today was the day of mulching: my favorite activity in the garden. It's a good chance to see how the plants are doing, anticipate those lovely blooms as you scan each label, and sniff the good organics that will make the soil better year after year.
The dahlias are way ahead of themselves with our recent heat and early start. This could be the year I have more than two blooms by mid July. Yee Ha!
