Marston George cuttings, out of the 10 cuttings I took off this variety only 1 has survived. I have lost about 2% of other varieties. Anyone else having a problem with Marston George cuttings this year ? also well done on your success rate. Respect.

MarkE orders Still be accepted until April 20th it says online . I am debating on an order but can source most of it through my society plant sale luckily. It might not exactly the variety I wanted but good never the less. Hopefully the cuttings will work out in the end. Last batch look more promising.

All the dahlia's that are potted up have been out doors for the last few days. There is a chance of frost here tonight, after a bit of juggling they are now all back in the greenhouse. Tomorrow will bring them all back out again, no frost forecast here for next week, so fingers crossed they can stop out.

Checked the forecast after tonight it's 8 , 9 and 10 degrees. So going to risk it. I need them to start moving. With give them first spray on Tuesday as well.
Going to inspect the Weston pirates tonight they are getting potted up. More to take so need the space. Anything dodgey looking in the bin.
Halls getting an order can't be fussing about with me making a pigs ear of it. Lol

Will have plenty spare of Andrea. You can have them well advanced or later cuttings. Take your pick.
