Dahlias

I grew this from seed last year and it didn’t really do very much, but this year it’s come back much stronger and now has lots of buds and a couple of flowers. The colour is t quite what I expected from the seed packet - I thought it would be more orangey - but I don’t really have the heart to pull it out even though there’s nothing else that’s red in the border.

Adam and Tomoko arrived after work today for the weekend - nice to have them home for a few days.
