When words escape, flowers speak.

Big, bold and beautiful...the dahlia stands tall in the garden.
I'm into growing dahlias...
for the second year now.
I'm not sure what took me so long!
With a few more colours this year than last...
the dahlia is the queen of my autumn garden.
There's no time for words today...
and so I'll let my dahlias speak.
Have a great day...
They're gorgeous!! I don't have any but I'm going to look into planting some for next year.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful!...I am envious...mine had a blight this year so had only a few poor blooms.
ReplyDeleteDahlias are really wonderful. Your collage is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe dahlias speak beautifully from your photos. Ours didn't do so well this year, and some say it is due to the long, cold start to summer. The ducks couldn't keep ahead of the slugs, so some plants had a hard time recovering. Still, there is a pretty show!
ReplyDeleteI love Dahlias..they are such a showy flower.
ReplyDeleteI've learned to love dahlias. They are so colourful and bloom long into the fall.
ReplyDeleteYours are gorgeous!
Aren't they amazing? From baby fingernail sized to dinner platter sized and so tempting to add just one more each year!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I've seen some dahlias that are as wide as dinner plates this summer. Your flowers must make wonderful bouquets!
ReplyDeleteAnd they are speaking so beautifully... I raised dahlias one year and have no idea why I stopped because they were amazing. Perhaps I'll get back to it. Oh. I remember. Labor intensive. Had to dig them up and save them and baby them too much. Oh drat! Like the glads...
ReplyDeleteOnly the second year and look at that mosaic. One would think if one did not know, that you had been growing these beauties for at least 30 years. Where(if ever) does you talent end?
ReplyDeleteThe dahlias spoke beautifully on your behalf! Fantastic colors!
ReplyDeleteOH they are lovely. . .thank you for sharing your bright beautiful buds with us.
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous Judy, Harv loves them and I planted some last year and we really enjoyed them However, I didn't dig them up and so there were no dahlias this year.
ReplyDeletelove the dahlias!! do you say 'dollie-ahs' or 'day-lias' around your parts?
