Dahlia Sapien
My Grandma-In-Law loved dahlias. She had dahlias that she’d had for years & years. Her yard flooded every winter so in the fall she’d dig them up & carefully clean and store them in marked paper bags in the garage. In the spring she’d take them back to their places and replant them with a little composted chicken manure for a snack. After she passed a granddaughter came and got all the corms. But every year I add a new dahlia to my yard in her honor. I have quite a few now, they’ve naturalized in my yard as it doesn’t flood. They always bring a smile to my face as they remind me of her.
