spent time outside in the garden digging up some of the dahlia tubers…

although it was sunny, it was cool and it got windier as I worked… my fingers were cold inside my work gloves and I had a cup of tea to warm them up when I got in, lol…

I only ended up bringing in the tubers from two of them… one is still out there but I will finish digging it out in a few days…

these are the tubers from my favourite Eveline… there are quite a few pieces and it took a lot of work to get them out of the planter…

once they dry out I will take off the rest of the soil around them… then I will put them into paper bags in a dark and cool part of the basement…

there were two of these in one pot and they bloomed a lot and made me very happy… I hope that there will be more next summer…

and this clump came out in one piece… it is the Robann Regal and also had multiple blooms… I am hopeful that they will be viable in the spring…

the flowers were a bit smaller than I expected but the plant produced many blooms…

looking forward to bringing in the Mick’s Peppermint, which also bloomed beautifully…
