Went to buy some groceries. I was not looking to buy flowers - yet. It's still too cool to plant annuals in the garden, so I've been holding off going to garden centers to buy. I have been to look and admire, but need to wait to buy.
However, just outside the grocery store, they were unpacking some lovely dahlias (among other flowers) and I couldn't resist.
Dahlias are my hubby's favourite flower. I don't really have a favourite - I love them all!

Just what I would have done! Really beautiful color. Good for you!
I have no idea where Spring is this year. Sun comes out, I buy plants. It snows, I put flats of plants in garage. I've done it 3 times in the past 3 weeks. Have a great week.

Thanks Beck for your compliment. But I have to let you in on a little secret. I was too lazy to get my camera and take a real true pic of my dahlias, so I just snitched one off the net. Shhhhh - don't tell. (the colours are nearly the same anyway).
Judy - Yikes! I thought our weather was gross and disgusting! Yours seems to be worse! Just when you think is safe - wham! Back go the flats in the garage. Ah well - shouldn't be too long now, and we'll all be complaining about the heat. LOL!
My Dad loves dahlias to. He used to have a garden full in his younger days. They are always so cheering, aren't they. I have some I planted in March, can't wait to see them bloom.
Enjoy those this summer!
I've updated my "Legends" post to include the nams of the legends, if your interested. Hope you have a great Mothers Day.

Hi Cheryl - I hope you'll post some pics of your dahlias when they bloom.
Thanks, JeanMac, I will enjoy them.
Hi Judy, I did go back to the legends and ha - should have known who they were!
Happy Mother's Day to you too!
