I have been so excited…

for a number of years, I’ve been overwintering dahlia corms, but haven’t had tons of luck… sometimes I know what they are and other times they are a surprise when they get put away…

one white one has proven very prolific and it has produced at least a dozen blooms so far this year in three different pots…

these are about the size of my palm…

a delightful feathery one that I purchased last year at Lilystone Gardens has come back nicely and has a number of blooms and buds in one pot…

each bloom is bigger than my hand…

these have all been white so I was particularly excited to see one come up in a pot that looked like it was pinky/purple…

it is a bit smaller than the white pompom-looking ones, but stands out in all its pink and purple hues…

nature is so amazing…
