goodmorning all ... My dahlia rooted with in 2 weeks by just sticking them down in a pot of soil.. my son broke off a stem when mowing so now i have 2 lol.. Dahlias are worth the time.. they just bloom and bloom most of the summer... I only have one dinnerplate(purple) dahlia but I bought tomato cages from walmart for .25 each just last week so that is what im staking mine with ..Its only about knee high right now..If any one would like to share a cutting of dahlia I'd love to root it...

I ordered some seeds for a passion flower 2 days ago.. Lo and behold I was at the pecan plant getting crushed shells yesterday..guess what?? A huge vine growing wild all over the fence...lol so go figure... I got several long pieces to root... Are the balls that hang from the vine the seed pods? or some type of fruit...I think the seeds i ordered are a lil different from the wild variety... If any one wants a piece of it I will be glad to grab some more off the vine... Looks like it must have been growing there for years.. I was there about 2 weeks ago and didnt even notice it..It was covered in flowers yesterday ... Heres a picture of my find from yesterday

I started dwarf geranium by just sticking cuttings in water.. had nice big roots within 3weeks... If you would like to have some cuttings from that just let me know also...

ok Im off to do some work in a new flower bed I built after my trip to lowes 2 weeks ago
Hope you guys have a great day... Trish
