The Dahlia Garden

Sep 08, 2023
∙ Paid

last winter we changed the layout of our garden. We used to have a 1250 m² flat plot with trees and hedges but without any plants as the previous owners only used the garden as a poo pit for their dogs. Over the years we’ve planted a total of 13 trees and quite a few perennials. I work with a lot of annual plants like tulips in spring and dahlias in summer. I jump start the dahlias indoors in March and plant them out late May.
