Take Off

Dearest Take Off,

You are a dream in bloom, your large lavender petals gently embracing a heart of creamy yellow—a vision of softness and light that lifts the spirit. How effortlessly you bring vibrancy to sunny borders and cozy containers, gracing each space with your radiant charm.

Your abundant summer blooms are a gift, each one a whisper of joy that dances on the warm breeze. At a graceful height of up to 90 cm, you elevate the garden to new heights of beauty, filling my heart with boundless admiration. How lucky I am to know you, my enchanting Take Off.

  • 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.
