Here we are the 1st week of December, and finally my Dahlias are out of the ground!
I kept putting it off because we had such a nice warm fall, then when it was time, I sprained my back, then when that started getting better, I got a tooth infection, then Thanksgiving visitors blah blah bah.
I spent 6-7 hours digging and hauling in the dahlias yesterday. It was snowing - 2-3 " in total, but at least it wasn't very cold.
It is supposed to drop down to the teens at the end of the week, so it was bring them in or write them off.
I didnt get 15- or 20 of them in, but they are ones that I dont think I will miss, and cutting back next year is a priority. 200 is just to many for me to deal with.
I still have to divide them all, which will take a while, but at least they are in now.
