I've created a short factsheet for growing dahlias!
Here's the link!
With everything else going on in our lives it can be easy to forget when to do what. And dahlias are the one plant I just have to have. Here's why:
- They're inexpensive, about half a bottle wine (this is my go to rule of thumb for context for something I want!)
- They're so easy to grow
- They give so much joy over many months
- As the seasons start to change and winter is on the horizon your dahlias will still be producing
- They provide masses of inspiration! Much of my work features dahlias. I love drawing them, and inking them up is brilliant. I've created fabrics, wallpapers and cards featuring them.
If you'd like to grow them, take a look at this nifty little guide that I've created. It features a cover sheet with some interesting facts (e.g. dahlias originated in central America, and were brought to Europe by the spanish, as a food product!).
Let me know in the comments if you love them as much as I do, and if you decide to try some, let me know too! What varieties are your favourite?
