A few days ago I finally set out my dahlias after they seemed to take an age to root and then make big enough plants to be planted.However, experience has taught me that they will grow fast from now on although I may only have a few flowers in time for the first shows at the end of August. Thereafter though, I usually have plenty to choose from for the September shows if we get a decent bit of sunshine in the next month or so.
The varieties I'm growing are Kenora Sunset, Jomanda and Emma's Coronet. I didn't manage to get any poms this year and I decided not to bother with Lismore Moonlight again as it was a bit shy in throwing up blooms last season.
