The Garden is Bursting into Life
I sowed the seed of Dahlia Coltness Hybrids a couple of weeks ago and they were ready for pricking out. If you have not tried dahlias from seed then do have a go. A packet of seed will cost you less than a corm or potted up corm from your local garden centre and you will get about three dozen plants from your sowing that will flower this year. The bonus of course is that you can lift the resulting corms in the autumn ready for replanting nest spring.
There just seems to be an air of optimism everywhere in the garden at the moment.
