Oh my goodness, Mary! 80 clumps of dahlias dug, cleaned, and stored away! No wonder you are exhausted. That is an amazing feat to accomplish even in a week. But it sounds like you did it in a few days. You are super woman!
You deserve an acorn.
Hope you have a few days of rest after all that work.
Liz, the dahlias also bloom very late for me this year. Some have not even bloomed. They are still only a foot tall. Don't know what happen with those.
For those that are blooming, it is blooming some nice blooms finally. Did you get all your peony roots planted?
