October 21, 2023: Bloomed (Received this tuber in trade from either Marcella or Laura. 90% sure this is a vintage variety, Golden Heart dahlia, 1955 from Old House Gardens as Joanie is growing this variety too. It is robust, a tall, big, vigorous plant that pumps out the blooms late summer to late October. The photo was taken October 21st. I'll look up another photo taken earlier in the season. Definitely a keeper. Will grow again!) November 18, 2023: Maintenance performed (Dug out the dahlia clump from the backyard birdbath area. It's a robust tuber, and am preparing for winter storage.)
