Colour

Any dahlias I try to grow seem to be swiftly devoured by slugs and snails. We can't use snail bait because of the dog, and I do worry about the birds. These are growing in pots, and have been useful in filling a gap in a border recently.
Just as I was thinking of pulling them up, they decided to flower again!
Out to lunch with friends, then much cutting back of summer growth in the garden - it was so hot!
