Pot tubers are springing into life, a great way to increase stock of a new variety is to start them early and do cuttings. Ordered in 7 new varieties from the uk all but one showing life.

Hello everyone. Just sending a post to encourage all of you who are not yet members of the Canadian Chrysanthemum and Dahlia Society to join us. Membership fees have been waived for 2021 and all meetings will be online through Zoom. Even when we are able to once again start meeting in person, we will continue to provide an online version. Presentations as well as question and answer periods are very informative and it’s a great way to expand your friend contact list. Joining ...the Canadian Chrysanthemum and Dahlia Society will also provide you with opportunities to obtain dahlia and chrysanthemum varieties not normally available to the public. Content is relevant to all growers across Canada. To join, please send your name, email and mailing address and what you grow (dahlias, chrysanthemums or both) to [email protected]. Also consider joining the Canadian Chrysanthemum and Dahlia society Facebook page. It's quite a lively page with lots of knowledgeable members.

It’s that time of year again, getting plants ready for digging

Kidds Climax. A late bloomer for me but worth the wait, should have a little more colour to it but as daylight get shorter the colours are not as intense. Big 10 blooms on a short plant at 3 to 4 ft tall.
