Feeling all the feels š¢
This past winter, I lost all my dahlias to freezing. It was a tough hitāboth financially and emotionally. It was my mistake, and I was really hard on myself for a while. But Iām choosing to move forward and find something positive in it. I promised myself Iād rebuild slowly and intentionally, creating a more mindful collection of tubers.
Over the winter, I started fresh with a few purchases from my favorite farms, and .
What I didnāt expect was the incredible support from my friends and community. Whether it was tubers gifted for my birthday or people sharing extras they had, it made such a difference.
A special thank you to Michelle at for so generously sharing some of her extra tubers. Moments like this remind me how grateful I am for the people who support me and this dream.
Now, Iām planting over 150 tubers and cuttings this springāwhich feels pretty amazing considering I was starting from scratch.
I canāt wait to share the blooms with you in a few months šø
