Thanks Pony! I agree with you completely! I'm too lazy to dig anything up in the winter. Hence... I don't dig up my dahlias. However, I also buy only the hardiest of them. I plant them in a high percentage of sand for good drainage in the winter and also a layer of mulch in the winter. That usually works pretty well. I think that the ones that I've lost, have actually been lost to the moles and gophers.

Precious came out on the porch the first day that was below 95.
