I added flowering plants to our potted porch garden this year. I’ve loved watching the progress of this fat dahlia, as she bloomed from a tight bud into a rosy queen with her face turned toward the sun. She’s on her way out now, but there’s a new bud growing. Do you see it?
One year ago: Summer Fiesta success! Keeping 40 hungry and thirsty friends happy and full.
Isn’t she beautiful? ❤
She was beautiful but lived a short life. Luckily, she has a friend who seems to be getting ready to follow in her footsteps.
