Dahlia 'Duet'

Good morning GTers! Hope everyone had a lovely weekend! My #dahlia have been terrible this year, with a couple not even bothering to flower at all! At least my 'Duet' has had a couple of flowers though! Have a marvellous Monday everyone! 😀

Morning Ian seems your not on your own I dug 2 out recently one had no flowers and one with just 4 small ones least you get to see this beauty 👌💖

@Keely - Morning Keely! It's disappointing isn't it? My new Bishop of Auckland which I was so looking forward to simply didn't appear! Oh well! 😀

Morning Ian, what a shame, but that's a beauty, enjoy yours too. 😊😊😊

Morning Ian, the only good ones of mine are the new ones. Have a good day 😁

@pelly - Good morning Jane! Thanks! 😀

@jaynehynesburton - Morning Jayne! I'm the opposite! Only my old ones have generated any blooms at all! You too! 😀

Strange Ian 🤔

Morning this one is gorgeous tho, strange isn't it- my cactus one took ages to flower but I'd put that down to it being moved earlier in year. Have a good day

Good morning Ian .......oh how disappointing but I wonder why?? Your 'DUET' is very pretty especially covered in raindrops. Have a magnificent Monday :))

Morning Ian @bigemrg how naughty of them not to even give you a bud but having said that isn't your duet Fantastic 😍. Hope you have a lively day Ian not very nice out there dull & dank at the moment ☁

Morning ian was just thinking same about my red ones in back think they are ready to take out and make room for spring 😁

Morning ☕️ looks like you have painted the tips of the petals 😉 lovely 😍
