2013 End-of-Season Dahlia Garden Post
Now, here is our first 2014 look at the garden. As you can see below, the rhododendrons behind the garden have bloomed, the dahlias are just breaking through the surface, and this year's flower ID posts are in place (May 21).

The greenery is so lush and beautiful. I love public parks because they usually have such a better garden than I could ever hope to have. It seems you enjoy them too. Have a wonderful time in the local parks this summer!
ReplyDeleteI can already see how beautiful it will all look!
ReplyDeleteInteresting. Do the Dahlias stay in the ground all year? Over here we have to dig them up in fall and plant them in spring.
