Dahlia

I have been asked last week how big or small are my Dahlias. Thankfully the yellow one my Aunt took a measurement tape and measure it. And the other day I also measure my smallest Dahlia.

                                                                     About 7 inches.

                                                                Less than 2 inches

I still can see blossoms but I doubt it if the flowers could make it. We already had frost at night. I just wonder how to keep this plants from dying in Winter. My step-daughter told me to re-plant it in a pot and my Aunt says dig the tubes and keep it. I search online and I found one solution cut the stem and the roots should be covered with a lot of leaves. And I think I will do that. ^_^

MYM~My yellow Dahlia

Flowers have spoken to me more than I can tell in written words.  They are the hieroglyphics of angels, loved by all men for the beauty of their character, though few can decipher even fragments of their meaning.  ~Lydia M. Child
