Dahlias: Thriving On Neglect


I haven't done anything outside lately and this section outside my front door is full of weeds I'll attack one of the days. The dahlias don't care. They rise above to show off their beauty and continue to bloom prolifically.  They really are easy to grow!

I had no idea dahlias bloomed so long. Lovely as ever!

Pam, They keep blooming until the frost kills them. In my growing zone they are considered annuals. In warmer climates they are perennials and those lucky people don't have to dig up the tubers and replant. I'm not sure how long they continue blooming farther south. Dahlias are the best!!!
