Never be afraid to try something new.

I just grow the dahlias from seed every year. They are very easy and reliable. I never lift the tubers. About 50% of them make it through the winter and I plug the gaps with the ones grown from seed. You can buy seed for specific colours and types but I just buy mixed bedding and take what I get. If it's just clour you're after it's the easiest way. It's mid September and they're still doing great.

Hi Alice, who packs the seed in seperate colours as i would love to be able to select some rather than always taking pot luck.
And when your back stops aching,
And your hands begin to harden.
You will find yourself a partner,
In the glory of the garden.
