With all the rain we had this winter, will be amazed if they haven't rotted away to nothing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07609378570741596783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4811617474824731934.post-56170426715935147192014-03-23T03:13:41.679-07:002014-03-23T03:13:41.679-07:00Could you pop over and glare at my dahlias sometim...Could you pop over and glare at my dahlias sometime?

I have never dug up my dahlias, mine are staying in the ground over winter, the oldest I have are 10 years old, I have nowhere to store anything and no greenhouse or garage or even a shed so what survives survives, and what doesn’t can’t be helped :-) <br />Loved your daffodil posies, absolutely beautiful.
