    Love, love, love your dahlias. Perhaps you could utilize those lovely short ones in your landscaping around the house. Would look lovely in front of your porch when bouquet bar patrons drive up. The gorgeous one you grew from seed is stunning. The color looks like watermelon in the video. Not sure if that’s the true color. You’ll have to think of a really neat name. It’s so beautiful. What a lovely surprise. The burgundies are probably my favorite. They would make a very regal bouquet with whites and just some greens.

    Hey Doll - if you're thinking of digging up those duds, and then throwing them away, what if you just chopped their tops after the freeze, and then heavily mulched them instead of digging them up?
    Then if they make it to next year, you might find they bloom better, AND then you don't have to dig them up anymore!!
    Besides, 2021 IS the weirdest weather year in recent history...
    So yeah.
    There's that...

    Deformation of dahlias. Hi there is a reason for misshapen blooms. Hope this helps, from dahlia grower in New Zealand.
    1. weather- if it's really hot when the buds are in their early forming stage before thay even show any color the centers can be hard & green, oval, double or triple centers, opening on one side but not the other-- all kinds of weird stuff can happen to the bud if it's stressed with too hot waether. Weather can also cause them to go to center too soon.
    2. poor nutrition- if the nutrients in the soil are bound up so the plant can't use them, the blooms will suffer.
    3. If you grow too many- or too few up-- Too few & the centers can be oval. Too many & they'll blow their centers before the bloom is completely open.
    4. If the centers are surrounded w/ curley petaloids- the stock is bad & should be replaced. Sometimes this is true of one that is supposed to be a fully double one but it had a big open center- toss it & get new stock.

    I've got a suggestion for naming that seed dahlia. 'Naughty Nicole' just because of the way it opened up.
    Hey, Nicole, today I picked up a couple Celosia plants for fall containers because they are so pretty (I got the "rocket" blooms vs. cock's comb) and, as you discovered, it's fun to say.
    The tag said to protect it from frost. Ha! Then why are you selling it now, garden center? I'm also 4b.

Bride to be and bridezilla were reeeedonkulous!!! More than enough stems and strong. Ez Duzzit was another workhorse with strong stems as well as Kelsey Ann Joy. Holly Hill orange ice was super strong stems and lasted the longest in the vase at 9 days!!! (I picked them partially closed.) And lastly....I fell hard for Ivanetti. Strong stems and tight knit petals making them feel almost hard.

My most prolific bloomer by far was American Dawn. It started blooming in late May and has never stopped for a break. It has been remarkable.

  • @gardeninggrandma5247
    @gardeninggrandma5247 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I grew a few dahlias this year for the first time in my small garden. I found they bloomed late, in September - Zone 6B, New England. I did some research which said to try more water if you don't have blooms. I increased the water I was giving to my dahlias and they finally bloomed. I'm chalking it up to being new to dahlias and the fact that the weather was very severe in New England during the summer. We had very high heat and late summer had several severe rainstorms. I also think I may have planted them too deep.

    Oh and I'd also say that Dahlias are truly late July even if you start early. I'm not as impressed with Cafe Au Lait and Cafe au Lait Royal as much as I am with Labyrinth. They do require deep watering, and they are so prone to poor bloom quantity and quality if next summer you don't have so much rain!

    • @mycherona1

It is a white decorative dahlia with a light purple center (a pretty close color match). It is also a very prolific bloomer!

    Love your videos, thanks! Although in Europe, the equivalent of something between zone 4 and 5, my most prolific dahlia has been Kasasagi. It started first of all at the end of June and going stronger and stronger so far. It has a quite small flower, but its producing in abundance. The other good ones have been Baccara, Arabian Night, Spartacus and Nuit D'Ete, all of them this lovely dark dark red color. Spartacus seems to go off quite quickly in a vase, or I just have not found the right time to pick it yet. Nuit d'Ete is absolutely gorgeus cactus shape dahlia. Linda's Baby seems to produce good quality flowers quite in abundance aswell, and right by this one I grow Karma Fuchsiana, really pretty glowing dahlia, seems to produce quite happily aswell. Though it started a bit later than the dark red ones. Henriette, gorgeous color and long stems, suddenly bursted into blooms and it has a lot.
    I am utterly disappointed in Cafe au Lait, as it has not produced a single bloom yet.

    Nicole, sometimes you have to incubate a plant for a year if it blooms sparcely. I love a pom called Wizard of oz. its medium pink and was first to bloom and still going strong! Also a dinnerplate is penhill watermelon. Fantastic and very prolific if u can use dinnerplates.

    I am so happy to watch this tour and find out there can be such a difference in dahlias. I was so excited to grow Dahlias this year, and disappointed to only have a few blooms from 9 tubers. They only just started to bloom, have more buds, but it is the end of September! I will have to try with one of the tubers you suggest.

    • @karenm5681

      You could add a thick layer (6-8 inches?) of lots of good quality compost on top of the sandy dead soil and grow in that. (Don’t till it in, though, and keep it well watered.)

    I discovered that all of my seed dahlias don't stay long in the vase. Anyone else?

    • @karenm5681
      @karenm5681 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, grew seed dahlias for the first time this year and I have found that my seed dahlias drop their petals super quickly. I think because they are single petal (mostly) and bees can easily get to the pollen, so the plant kicks into “seed making mode” so that shortens the life of the bloom.
      I don’t put dahlias I’ve grown from seed into any bouquets I sell, but since they’re there anyway, I let the bees enjoy them (they love sleeping on the blooms overnight) and I cut some blooms for my own home, just keeping in mind that they will shatter soon and not expecting a longer vase life.
      It was fun to try for this year, but because I grow my flowers to make bouquets and sell them, I will never buy seeds for dahlias again. I have to be purposeful with the garden space I have.

  • @sheilastromberger2275
    @sheilastromberger2275 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Can’t wait for the aerial tour 🌸! Do dahlia buds continue to open after you cut them? And do the plants continue to put out more buds/blooms or are they once and done? You may have convinced me to try a few next year.

    • @dormetheus
      @dormetheus 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      1. No, basically Dahlias start to fade as soon as you cut them, they might unfold a little. 2. Dahlias are kind of like Big Mama zinnias, so the more you cut them, the more they'll bloom (if they're healthy)

      You can cut them when there around 70% open and they will open in the vase and last longer. Also keep them cool and they will last longer as well, they can be stored in the fridge for a day or so as well.
