The first dahlia started to bloom. We are early this summer. Usually dahlias start around mid August.
Not quite sure what will I have blooming later in the autumn. Seems that the long period of high temperatures has made everything to be unbelievably early.
Well at least I have plenty of watering to do.

It is an outstandingly beautiful day in your neighborhood, and I hope the blooms last longer than usual since they started early. 🙂
