I dug up this spring most all of my dahlias because they have been in the ground for 2-5 years and it was time to take care of the mangled mess of tubers so they will bloom better. It was very dry digging so that helped a lot. Sold most of the tubers (to make some money since still unemployed) besides giving some away to friends, family, and trading.
Was a very cold, dry spring here in the NW. But the dahlias are coming along. Slowly!
Snails and slugs have taken a toll on some of the dahlias so hope they will put up another nice shoot so they can grow/bloom this season.
But do have a couple normal ones blooming finally.
I will try to post more pictures this year of my dahlia beds and blooms.
This picture is a border dahlia that I grew from seed last year and it came back in a large pot.
So hope you wil enjoy my dahlias this season!
