Platinum Blonde

Dearest Platinum Blonde,

You are pure sunshine and grace, your snowy white petals encircling a soft, pale yellow heart—a beacon of cheer and warmth in the garden. How effortlessly you charm, inviting bees and pollinators to dance among your blossoms, spreading life and joy wherever you bloom.

With blooms measuring a perfect 12 cm across, you are a delightful treasure, whether nestled in a herbaceous border or standing proudly in a bed all your own. Summer and autumn belong to you, my radiant beauty, and so does my heart

  • When, pray tell, should one plant dahlias?

    Ah, my dearest readers, dahlias are rather particular creatures. They demand a sun-drenched stage and soil that drains as elegantly as champagne from a crystal flute. Their favourite debut season? Spring, of course, in April, May, and June, when the world is positively begging for glamour.

    Those wishing to give their blooms a head start may begin in early April. Cosset them indoors like the little divas they are, and by the time the weather warms, they’ll be ready to sashay outdoors, blossoms poised for admiration.
