The dahlia season has started, so far there are beautiful white, lilac and cerise with plenty more on the way. Perfect with the stunning dark scabious that are flowering like crazy.

An exhausting but satisfying day!
Bizarrely it feels good to be sitting here barely able to move after an exhausting day in the garden. When every muscle in your body aches you realise how long the winter has been!
Among other things, I have done mass planting of dahlias today, in pots in the polytunnel to start them off, hopefully I may be able to get a few cuttings from them too before they go in the ground.
The dahlias arrived this week from Rose Cottage Plants and Peter Nyssen and there are some stunners!

I also purchased maroon Rip City, purple Thomas A Edison (highly recommended by Sarah Raven), orange Mrs Eileen and Lemon Bilbao. I can't wait to start using these in summer bouquets.
