BEAUTIFUL DAHLIAS
I took this photograph of dahlias growing in a pot in my garden and am sorry to say that I cannot remember the name. I don't think it is the gaudy coloured Pooh dahlia, but another one which doesn't grow very tall. Now, I know I have the label somewhere tucked in a bag with other labels, probably stuffed into the large garden storage box which contains all sorts of paraphernalia and a VERY LARGE and not at all cute SPIDER! It's not one of the relatively pretty Araneus diadematus spiders, it is dark brown and HUGE! When I am feeling brave, when I can get my arachnophobia under control, when I absolutely have to open Pandora's box and confront the horror within because I need the bubble wrap and the garden fleece, and the waterproof coverings for the table etc, then I will be able to say what the dahlias are. Until then...
