LOL Melissa, ignorance CAN be bliss. These things have been in the ground at least two years. Last year the area along the fence got weed whacked every week or so because I thought there was nothing but weeds there! I guess they're pretty tough after all. Here's a collage of the dahlia bud, the plant next to it (no buds yet) and a frog I almost squashed taking the pics. It should be pretty easy to just tie the dahlia to the fence if it starts to flop.
