YXE! Along with some gorgeous dahlia tubers & cuttings, I’ll have collected seed from my collection of specialty cut flowers that you can sow indoors now or direct sow outdoors with me at the Prairie Flower Market May 10th 1-4 ( 1760 Baker Road Casa Rio) hope to see you there💛

🎶These are a few of my favorite things 🎶

We’re still willing the snow to melt and temps to rise in Sk but your tubers are packed up waiting for a safe shipping window, cuttings are thriving and the last of my seed starting is in progress. Despite our recent blizzard and freezing over nights, we’re holding onto hope as only gardeners can💛

1 dahlia completely changed my life & I’ve never looked back✨

This seasons goal is to take more video of bouquets & bunches, I have thousand of photos but precious few videos. And while I have a roster of stunning dahlias, I’ll be focusing all of my energy on my dahlia seedlings in 2026🤞🏼Thanks so much for your joining me here, there’s so much beauty still to come💛

Chaos Garden Magic 🪄
Here’s the thing, your garden doesn’t need to be neat and tidy to produce. Last year we created this “little emergency” semi circle bed for all of my filler flowers and random leftover bits that I couldn’t bear to compost due to lack of space.

The Chaos garden was literally stripped turf, topped with compost and planted. And not planted in a pretty rows, I quite literally tossed them in, and sprinkled some seed for good measure. I ignored all spacing requirements and it was chaos! But in the best way. Survival of the fittest, short plants reached for light, tall ones flopped occasionally, others held each other up, as one variety finished, another was unfurling. The pollinators and weeds were wild. But the weeds stayed low due to the crowded plants and every day there was a new surprise.

2 extra dahlia cuttings mingled with glads, cosmos, orlaya, bee balm, nicotiana, lavatera, statice, grasses, scabiosa, bachelors buttons, zinnias, asters, marigolds and a myriad of bits and pieces. And you know what? I’m doing it again, somehow the chaos garden became my favorite spot, I can’t wait to visit it again. This year there will be surprises from seed dropped in the fall, plus peonies, tulips, yarrow and rudbeckia I transplanted into it before the snow fell.

The only change will be my cosmos. The previous years cosmos dropped seed and planted themselves in the dahlia patch and I adored finding them reaching through so I’ll do that intentionally this time. They were a pain to get to in the chaos garden✂️

All of that to say, forget the perfection sometimes friends, magic is made in the mess💛

The color I’m drawn to the most in my cutting garden is this juicy coral raspberry! I can’t get enough of it and am always looking to add more😉 My fav dahlias in this hue; Tempest, Crazy 4 Wylie Quinn, Camano Roo, Carolina Wagemans (late season blooms), HH Daydream (close), RM Pink Sugar & Letterkenny Pi. I’ve tried Parkland Tribute 3 seasons in a row but it refuses to thrive for me😔

💛THANK YOU 💛 THANK YOU 💛 THANK YOU💛
What an incredible launch day! Thank you for showing up in such a big way for my first “official” online dahlia tuber sale! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate every single message, share, order and bit of encouragement (I’m still reeling over here🥹)

I’ll go through orders each evening this week & double check shipping, combined orders etc, if you’ve had an oopsie, no worries! I’ll find and correct it as I go, it’ll just take me a few days to get through them.

If you’ve missed it, there are still some beauties waiting for you in the shop, I also restocked annual seeds and a few dahlia cuttings yesterday as well. Seeds will ship by mid Feb, tubers & cuttings ship in the spring after all danger of frost has passed in Sask 😊 www.fieldsedgesk.com
