Lesson learned, aim to have my dahlias dug before daylight savings next year. Working full time and trying to maintain my hobby is ROUGH right now. I got home at 5:20, it was full dark by 5:55.

Current state of my garden vs a few weeks ago. Notice my lone sentinel sunflower.

    This is an automatic reminder regarding r/dahlias Rule 3:

    When reasonable*, posters should make a good-faith effort to identify which variety/varieties are shown in their photo(s). If you don’t know for certain, please say so. Someone will usually know!

    *Common-sense exceptions to this rule will be honored, such as if the photo does not contain a blossom, or if your photo contains large volumes (such as in wide field shots).

    If you’ve already done this, thank you! No further action required.

    If not, please add a reply to this comment and confirm if you know the name of your dahlia variety/varieties shown in the photo(s). Alternately, if you’re uncertain of the variety name(s), it’s ok to say that, too.

    We’re in standard time now, and that is rough. I wish we could stay on daylight saving time year-round.
