How to Cure the Winter Dahlia Blues
Do you dread the end of Dahlia season? I know I definitely miss having blooms on my table! I miss seeing luscious layers of petals all over Instagram. I’m already seeing some of my Northern friends having a frost.
Well, a few years ago, I discovered a way to cure the Dahlia Blues. You just have to take a (virtual) trip south! To the Southern Hemisphere that is!
At this time of year, flower farmers in Australia are gearing up to begin planting their dahlias. And when it’s bleak and cold here, they will be showing off blooms galore!
Today, I thought I would share with you some of my favorite farms to follow. So pull up your Instagram and get ready to go down the rabbit hole!

There are many more but these are some of my favorites! It’s really fun to learn about how dahlias are grown in other climates and parts of the world!
