Mine are out and are so pretty, this year they are a mix of shop bought and home grown. So far I’ve been lucky and the slugs have left them alone *fingers crossed*. I just love all their jewel colours and the boost they give the garden once the roses have gone and how pretty they are cut in a jug.
They are in the markets and garden centers at the moment and should last through to the end of October, flowering throughout. So if you fancy a bit of end of season colour stock up now, either pop them in a pot or in a boarder and they will look amazing. My perfect flower!

Very pretty. My Dad used to love growing dahlias, brings back some nice memories.

WOW, just beautiful. My dad grows dahlia’s. I’d never remember to lift them, I’m a very lazy gardener

These are gorgeous, beautiful colours. You were lucky, mine have been totally devoured by slugs this year.

That’s such a shame, we’re quite blessed with not a lot of slugs here – which is fortunate as I’m terrified of them.
