I love those clippers, and thank you for answering the feeding question. I have two in 7- gallon pots and they are prolific, need two more 80 cm waterlilly light pink and orange ones 😍

Great video Zoe thanks again for taking the time to answer all our questions. I’m definitely “into” dahlias this year and these videos are helping me along nicely. I’ll be increasing my stock for next year now I know more about growing them. Thank you so much again. Deb x

What a joy to find a good British KZbin channel. Will go and have a look at your website, pronto. Incidentally, very interesting to see closeups of the foliage. I grow dahlias principally interspersed in my garden borders between shrubs, though I do cut a few for the vase. So I want varieties requiring minimal staking AND with attractive foliage. So many, like Labrynth etc have unattractive foliage. Others like David Howard, Pooh, even Sir Thomas Edison and Purple Gem, are more garden worthy. If course, many singles like HS Wink, or Bishop of Canterbury are also wonderful in the garden but no good for cutting. It would be great to find suppliers who would provide details/photo of the foliage as well as the flower for that reason. I'm off to Wisley flower show next week, will you be displaying in the dahlia flower tent?

I’ve just added a video to my Instagram with a non staking trial with beautiful foliage this evening. We’ve not supplied Dahlias for a couple of years, it’s a lot of work and takes a huge amount of space but we have decided to offer them this Spring again following so many requests xxx

Brilliant video thank you. Out of interest do you have a video about your wooden supports.

[@zoewoodwardgardening]
