Looking for a new plant to grow in your Monterey garden? Have you thought about dahlias? Perhaps you should. Dahlias are an extremely popular ornamental plant that grows easily and blooms for an extended period of time throughout the years. As you might expect, the Monterey Bay Dahlia Society takes their dahlia growing very seriously. They happily provide advice for the three phases of dahlia-growing. These are: “selecting the plants, planting the tubers, and enjoying the blossoms. The planting season begins after the last frost (after April 1 for the Monterey Bay area, conservatively) and ends mid-June (earlier is better).” According to the American Dahlia Society there are 18 forms of the dahlia, 15 colors or color combinations, and nine blossom size categories. That is a lot of dahlias to pick from. Fortunately, you can take in the Monterey Dahlia Society’s Annual Dahlia Show to get inspiration. Before you begin any planting you might have to make way in your garden by clearing out some old dirt and replace with enriched top soil. If you’ve got piles of dirt that need removing then your only call should be to Junk King Monterey. Junk King makes it their business to help folks clear out the clutter in their lives.
