That's a wrap on our flower season! Thank you all so so much for sharing our dahlias all over Gippsland. It's such a pleasure to see how much joy they bring everyone.
Our flowers are only here for a short time - this year, we managed almost 5 weeks, which is pretty normal for field grown dahlias in our area. Now the stems are sagging, the centres are blowing, and after tonight's wind... they'll be a pretty pile of petals on the ground!
The patch is working away at developing seed for us now - the bees will do their thing, and we'll harvest and sort seed over the next few months.
Our tuber list will be up soon - hopefully in the next week to give you all a chance to preorder before we start digging and dividing :)
The picture is of Patrick and I a few weeks ago - I was naming varieties, and he was chasing the water hens...
So much love to you all xx
Laura
