Dahlias

So NGL is still one of my favourite sayings (Not Gonna Lie) – I fell out of love with Dahlias for various reasons – they are difficult to grow – they get all sort of beasties – they also succumb to rain damage in the bud stage or petal stage – the tubers are tricky customers to store and sort eyes and all that malarkey… needless to say I managed to kill all the ones I had… I shrugged and went you know what not for me – and then a friend via Instagram sent me some in a seed swap – seed dahlia – well nothing to lose give it a go…

Above is a TA DAH moment – think I might just be hooked and given the push to try again… – it has the shortest stem at the moment – possibly too many in the same pot and probably could do with a very good feed – but oh that creamy white petal – adorable x
