Before you Buy Dahlia Tubers – Read Me Please

If you have gardens set by color, as I do, check the background color of the leaves in the photo of the dahlia tuber you are looking to buy. I find many sellers will color adjust to make a dahlia seem a rarer color than it actually is. Or, perhaps a new seller may not pay attention ensuring a color is true when they throw up a photo of the dahlia for sale.

30 Day Challenge wise, the extra spouse focus is easy and going well. Even if I am in the middle of an article, I take a break when he comes in, for a chat or a snuggle. Usually I will ask if it’s ok to finish up my work, but in this small way of not asking and giving him my full attention feels correct to me. Future Self journaling going well too.
