It really is lovely @CatDouch if a bit close in colour to by Bacardi which has been in flower for ages. Will try it in the ground next year, it's a bit big for a pot.
We’re off to our little village show today and I’ve entered into the dahlia class, 4 dahlias, but I can’t decide which to take … I’m favouring the 4 Cafe au Lait but my husband thinks the 4 Jowey Joshua look better. Any opinions? It really is a very small show and I know it’s only fun but …..
Whilst I prefer the 'Jowey Joshua' type for the garden, for a show, maybe the Cafe au Lait would make a bigger impression for such an occasion...? It is quite an unusual colour..
I found this hemerocallis in a half price sale at the garden centre, it’s so root bound that the pot is bulging out. I’m sure it will be alright once repotted. Longfields Beauty
