Susan: How are your dahlias? I ended up getting some Redskin tubers from a friend. I planted them directy outside in early April and they've bloomed real nicely and are still going strong. They are dwarfs, which is great because I didn't have a sunny place for anything else tall. I didn't even realize there were dwarf varieties until I got these. :) duh.

I'm very happy with them. Now I just need to decide whether to dig them for winter or not. Only reason I'm even considering digging them is that they aren't in particularly well-drained soil. I'll probably leave them in, though.

So? How are yours?
