| Next meeting is May14th, 7:00 PM Note that we have moved the starting time of our meetings to 7:00 PM Dates to Remember 4/28 - tuber packing party 1: 00PM at Swan Island Dahlias 5/3 - set up in Canby for MGS sale. We need more volunteers at 11:00 AM. We need more helpers on Saturday afternoon. Contact Linda Taylor if you can help. May 11th Trial Garden planting at 9AM. Bring a small shovel and/or a trowel. May 14th Meeting Gordon will discuss “Planting, Staking and Tying.” He will remind us about the importance of slug control and there will be a fertilizer discussion. A tuber and plant silent auction will be part of the evening also. Since extra tables are needed for the silent auction, Teresa could use a volunteer or two to set up tables at about 6 pm. In March, we ran out of time to talk much about starting dahlia seeds so this will be touched upon. If you have spare dahlia seed you are willing to donate to the chapter, please bring it to the meeting so newer members can try growing seedlings. Vice President Gordon asks that careful evaluation of your soil moisture be made before planting tubers or young dahlia plants in order toavoid compaction. It may be a bit wet still in many of our gardens. 2018 Portland Dahlia Show Pictures Video of British Dahlia Garden |
