Dahlia delight

Their bulbs
overwinter in cellar
to delight our eyes
in summer
in many shapes
and colours
until they start fading away
and their bulbs ...

  1. La veritat és que són una veritable delícia.
    El meu pare en sembrava al meu jardí de tots colors i, no sé com, pel dia de difunts en portàvem un ram als meus avis. Eren les úniques que es tallaven, bé no, de tant en tant una branqueta del rosal de pitiminí anava a parar a un gerro molt petit de casa.
    Són precioses, Sean.

    1. A lovely memory, Paula.
      The garden flowers rarely end up in a vase here either; occasionally a small colourful bouquet for our daughter's bookshop, and sometimes a mini-bouquet for a neighbour and the house.
