A new Dahlia popped up in the garden this afternoon, I don’t know where it came from, and it’s the only one. Dahlia’s are Latin flowers, they grow in tropical climates, they bloom late and stay long. I call it the Tango Dahlia, it has a kind of sensual, hothouse feel to it. I can see a dancer with one of these in their teeth, swirling and twisting in a Mexican cafe. A loose woman Dahlia, a sexy Goddess Dahlia.
