I plan to try and persuade the new dahlia I planted to survive the winter with compost/leaf chippings over it. Do I cut it back first?
I have some small michaelmas daisies that I planted this year and they have been fine - bloomed well. I thought they might die back in the winter - but they look as if they have actually died! Is this how they look when they die back?
I laughed today and it felt good.
