My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

First dahlias question

18 years ago

At the last minute I ordered dahlias from Swan Island and planted the tubers in a prepared bed on June 10. I've wanted to grow these for years, but realize I got a late start. Any idea what I should expect? Most of these are supposed to turn into 4' plants with 8" or so blooms. Does the lateness mean they won't bloom til Sept? I realize I took something of a risk, but I wanted to give it a go this year. Now that they are in the ground, I'm wondering if I should keep my expectations low. I'm in north central Mass near the NH border.
