    Such beauty! I'm a retired florist. I learned from my floral design instructor, Ann Patrick, how to extend the freshness of cut flowers. Here it is - just in case you are interested. 1) have a bucket of water to place the cut flowers, right after you harvest them. 2) Optional; however it works amazingly great especially with hydrangeas, place a wet paper towel over the bucket of cut flowers 3) If available, place in a cool/dark place, or in a flower cooler, if you have one. Extra tip: It is not recommended to tough white flower petals, as they will damage/turn brown easily. I really enjoy your videos. After you take the out of the bucket with water and set them on the table, you could increase their freshness, by re-cutting the stem before placing them in water again. The flowers may get an air bubble, which can prevent them from taking up water, after they have been out of the water for a few minutes.

    Beautiful! My Dahlias are FINALLY budding up so I hope to have blooms in the next few days. This is my first year growing Dahlias and I am so excited. They weren't the healthiest tubers when I bought them (Costco and Walmart specials haha) but hopefully I can save healthy tubers from them and get earlier blooms next year! I hope this season for you is better than you dreamed it would be. We all love seeing you grow and succeed!

  • @harvestandholly
    @harvestandholly 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Absolutely beautiful. My dahlias were doing pretty great until about a week ago when they all developed some sort of curly, gnarly leaf issue. The buds all became really tiny and gnarly too. I'm so sad thinking my season is over since I only have 10 plants and they are almost all infected. I cut them all down to where the leaves look relatively normal and sprayed. Hope I'll get some healthy new growth and maybe flowers for October.

I definitely love this one waaay more though. Glad to see that you had a ton more success with dahlias this year!! Woot, woot!! PS. Love the new porch furniture, so cozy!!

  • @SouthernYankee
    @SouthernYankee 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think you don’t need to stake if you have them planted close because I ran out of stakes and have a couple plants right next to each other and they aren’t staked either and both plants are upright and not flopping. Any tricks to getting better vase life? I end up not cutting mine because they don’t last. Also virginia gets so much rain I’m losing some to tuber rot. I’m wondering if I mulch better if I could keep them. So sad my jowie Mirela is my first bloomer and the others I’m still waiting on.

The color is a bold move for me but I like the contrast with the others. Can't believe you didn't have to stake, my garden is a maze of posts and poles holding everything up...even with the pinching...LOL!

    I got my dahlias seeds from botanical interests it’s all decorative it’s really beautiful but the heat wave gave them lots of problem and the bugs got them too, next year I’ll try tubers.

    Beautiful! I love the burgundy shades. Dahlias are so hard to give up aren’t they? I learned a lot this year. I will either leave mine in ground and covered well or dig and presprout. My newbies rotted from our irrigation but the presprouted ones grew like giants .

    Beautiful. I did a small cut flower garden for the first time this year. I had success with some things and failure with others primarily my dahlias. I planted only 10 and they all came up and were doing great. Some were just starting to produce buds when we had a week of really rainy weather back in July and I lost them all to rot. Disappointed but lesson learned and have changes in mind for next year. All that beauty inspires me to keep trying.

      I’m sorry. This was my first year too and all mine rotted before they came up. Bummer.

      Will you chase the rain away?

      I clearly didn't do a good job of chasing the rain away yesterday. I'm in south central PA and we got about 7 or so inches of rain from Ida. I walked around this morning and everything just looks so sad from being so waterlogged. Beautiful day out there today so hopefully things dry out well. This year my dahlia area had extra rain water directed to it due to a taper in the yard. I never realized how much extra rain water went through that area until I tried putting dahlias there. We are redoing that taper so hopefully next year will produce better results.

    Most of my dahlias started flopping to one side even with the netting. It’s like they got to a certain height and they started shifting. I’m wondering if it’s the way in which I put the tuber in? I see to lay them in but maybe I should be precise in which way I position the eye in the hole 🤔

    • @EvelynM-vlogs
      @EvelynM-vlogs 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I grow 135 dinnerplate varieties and the secret to none flopping over plants is to plant the tuber 6" deep thereby allowing the soil to help support the bottom of the stem.

      @@angelenaj0Li3 I use a one gallon pot as a template, they are 6" high so if the pot sinks into the hole I made and is level with the soil surface, I'm good to go. If you start your plants ahead of time just fill in as they grow.
