My dahlias lasting longer was a curse I guess, as far as taking them out. I have one major bed to do yet, and when I just went to spray the water from the hose to clean one off, it was just a trickle. It was then I realized the hose was getting more and more full of ice. Can't find any other available effective method of cleaning them, I was hoping to get some favorites out today in lieu of what's coming. Its going to snow likely tonight/tomorrow, not much, but then its going down to 15F Sunday night. After that it warms up enough I think that I could finish the job maybe next weekend, but will that really cold weather ruin them? What is the limit they can stand? It was already like 24F last night and there were some ice crystals in the soil today, would it take a complete ground freeze?
