“Headed down to the field this evening after a few days, expecting to see some damage from the recent frost. To my surprise, the dahlias are still going strong! 🌸💪 Nature’s resilience never fails to amaze me.

“Like many others this morning, I headed to the field to assess the frost damage here on the South East Coast. We’ve had a light frost, so this weekend I’ll be removing all the flowers and seeing if the Dahlias can pull through. I’m hopeful it wasn’t too harsh, but if they don’t survive, well, that’s Mother Nature for you
