I know I should be cutting back the dead dahlias and digging the tubers to store over winter but I just can't bring myself to do it. They looks so beautiful dead.
The sparrows, like me, are enjoying a lazy sunny Sunday afternoon . If I ventured out into the garden, I'd frighten them away. And there's a chilly wind, so the dahlias will stay there for another week.
Called getting the most out of autumn...
ReplyDeleteThey do look lovely - hang on as long as you can!
ReplyDeleteHello Pauline,
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting how plants can be so pretty even when they are past the use by date. Hope you have a great week.

I love the way some flowers look when they dry up. I leave them too.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
They are very pretty when dead. Interesting to think about.
ReplyDeleteYou are so considerate to the sparrows. I'm sure that they will be grateful.
