I started some dahlias in pots on my deck this spring, intending to use them in a clients garden. But they were very slow to show any growth, so I bought some at a nursery and kept these ones on my deck. They have just started to bloom.
I was talking to the next door neighbor at one place we were working at today. He was one of my clients last year, then this year he decided he would get his teenage sons to do some of the work. Guess how that worked out? He said that he will have to get us back next year, as he has a wedding at his place.
