Stuff and Nonsense

The last of the Cafe-au-lait Twist Dahlias

What a miserable wet day we've had here. It's been decidedly drippy all day.
On the first occasion when the rain stopped, I popped out into the garden to see if I could find a blip. The choices were limited, and I took a few shots of a couple of our remaining flowers including this dahlia. It's one of the "dinner plate" varieties but was a bit chewed at the edges so a close up is all I could manage.  Being tender plants, they will shortly be brought in to overwinter in the garage to see if they will survive until next year. It's the first time we've had dahlias from tubers (just the 4) and although they have been later flowering than expected, they've had some really lovely blooms.
