a sampling of the simple beauty i find every week at the farmer's market. dahlias and tuberose brighten our dining room with elegance and the most intoxicating aroma in the evening (tuberose). i have struggled every summer trying to keep the dahlias perky until the new batch comes in. The secret is warm to hot water and only a small amount in the vase as the dahlia is hollow and can get water logged. for tuberose, i do low water but no heat is required. enjoy and find some for your self! marlo
