If you follow me on Instagram, you probably predicted a photo of this dahlia today. I’ll fill you all in by saying that this is the first dahlia I have ever grown from a tuber! The variety is Peaches & Cream and I’ve been obsessing over it all week, checking multiple times a day on it’s progress, talking to it lovingly, and exclaiming over it’s intricate beauty. I could go on and on but I won’t. Instead, I’ll just say that, when it comes to dahlias, now I understand what the fuss is all about.
Our weekend is free of plans and I couldn’t be happier about that. Here’s to a good one for all of us!
GORGEOUS!!! Happy weekend. Enjoy the no plans part (those are the best weekends).
What a lovely dahlia! Enjoy the weekend and stay cool!
Gorgeous, Carole! Bravo to you! (and I love that you are talking to that beauty! I would too!)
Have a great weekend and stay cool!
It’s beautiful
BEAUTY!
MAGICAL, Carole! Absolutely magical! XO
It’s gorgeous! Just about the only thing I miss about working in my office is the bouquets of dahlias that one of my coworkers used to bring in from her garden, so thanks for sharing yours!
Oh, Carole, I am in awe of your flower skills! This dahlia is a tremendous beauty, but then again, most of your flowers are. Thanks for sharing and have a fabulous, low-key weekend.
Gooooorrrgeous dahhhhling!!! very impressive.
I feel like even great photos miss the incredible nuance of color in dahlias. Enjoy this beauty since it’s right there IRL!
Beautiful dahlia Carole!! Woot woot! And here’s another woot woot to no plans. Enjoy!
Stunning!
