My dahlia bloomed! She bloomed a couple of days ago and I have been taking pictures to see how big and beautiful she would get. I was really worried I wouldn't get a bloom before the first frost this year due to having to remove probably 75% of her leaves from a nasty pest issue. Plants are so amazing with how determined they are to survive even with some unfortunate circumstances along the way!! #happyplants #newgrowth #gardendahlia #greggang

My plant is declining in new to gardening. Following this app hopefully my first flower will thrive!!

I was all excited to show you that my #Dahlia has opened its first #bloom! But, my #dogsofgreg decided he was more important. Then, while I wasn't looking, my toddlers ripped the bloom off and threw it in the dirt 🫠 At least I got to enjoy it for 10 seconds. 🌸 #outdoorgrowing #flower #happyplants 🌱 #NewEnglandGregGang 🌱 #NortheastGregGang 🌱 #MaineGang 🌱 #ThePlantMompy

What's wrong with my dahlia? I need some help! I think my dahlia plant has a pest issue but I don't know what kind of pest or how to treat it. I saw a spider hanging out on the stem, but I've never known a spider to do damage like this. I had noticed the yellowing leaves before but this is the first time I'm noticing the holes and other discoloration. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it as I started this dahlia from just the tuber and she is my baby. #gardendahlia #pestcontrol #greggerssupportinggreggers #greggang #help

My son bought her for me on mother's Day! I was in love instantly, doing so well at keeping her alive, allowing her flowers to bloom,by trimming her leaves back a bit because she was so busy keeping her leaves green that her flowers were littletoNONE #GardenDahlia

After I trimmed her leaves she started blooming flowers left and right, I knew I did the right thing!! I'm so sad 😭 these kids I think were trying to help, they're under the age of 10-4 they pour water 🌊 allover my plants!! I couldn't save her. mad/sad #GardenDahlia

What is wrong with my dahlia could it be the tubers are rotting? Should I repot it and will it come back. It’s August. My other two dahlias are lush and beautiful #GardenDahlia
