Dahlia 'Pooh - Swan Island' syn. Dahlia 'Pooh'

Despity the frost giving this a bashing some last blooms are still making the effort! Xx

Making the most of these as they may well be gone tomorrow as the farmer has just turned the sheep back into the field next door. Despite the chicken wire they beheaded the lot last time! The joys of having animals as neighbours! 😃

I'm loving this feathery centre! Flowers are so beautiful!

Gorgeous colours #dahlia

Beautiful 😍🌺

Oh that's beautiful @SilviaDavies dahlia's are my favourites you get so many beautiful varieties I lost a couple of mines putting them out at the end of May..won't do that again, that's what I get for being impatient! 😂 💕😍

I know it's so easy to be caught out! I had some tubers that I'd taken in to winter and my partner left the shed door opened when we had a frosty dew and it must have got then because although they seemed ok when I planted them, none of last year's stock have come through sadly! It take such a long time for them to germinate doesn't it! Worth it though! 😃 £1 shop here I come again this year I think! All being well! 😃

Yeah they do take a long time Silvia but they are a must in the garden they are so showy I love them. I got loads from wilko they had some lovely ones..the same as the garden centre but much cheaper, £1 shop is fab too who doesn't love a bargain 😀 @SilviaDavies

It is beautiful 😍

Exactly @mich ! Even the suspense of not knowing what they are has been lovely! I have to say it's made planning go out of the window! No colour scheme what so ever! To be honest I had about 30 plants and I lost track of what was what when I moved them around in my little plastic greenhouse 😃 😃

@SylviaDavies I was the same I made a plan during the winter months of what I wanted planted out the front and where but Spring came and my plan was out the window too, I blamed it on the excitement of finally getting to fill my borders 😂

Mines is plastic too Sylvia another wilko bargain £100 dwn to £40! 😉 it does the job for now I will get a glass one in time

Thanks @janric 😃
