If you want to up the wow factor of your flower garden, nothing beats the show-stopping quality of a bed of a colorful dahlia bed. And there\u2019s no better time to plan next summer\u2019s stunning array of dahlias than right now. Join Clallam County Master Gardeners Pam Pace and Ed Adams at Woodcock Demonstration Garden for the Digging Deeper Saturdays presentation \u201cThe World of Dahlias\u201d to learn how to plant, care for and enjoy these striking flowers.<\/p>\n

During their presentation, Pam and Ed will show attendees how to select and identify dahlias and how to plant, feed and water them. Attendees will also learn how to protect them from pests and viruses, and how to harvest and store them properly.<\/p>\n

Pam Pace is a past Kootenai County, Idaho Master Gardener and a current 2023 Clallam County Master Gardener. During her lifelong gardening journey, she has grown vegetables, herbs, fruits and flowers in five different planting zones. Pam\u2019s favorite garden area is her cutting garden, filled with an ever-changing variety of annual flowers such as snap dragons, sunflowers and cosmos along with perennials including peonies, roses and her most favorite, dahlias. She combines her love of dahlias and her knowledge of gardening for this Digging Deeper Presentation.<\/p>\n

\"\"Ed says his dahlia ardor stems from his childhood. \u201cMy love of dahlias comes from my grandma and one of my sisters. A large portion of my grandma’s half-acre of ornamentals was dahlias. My garden at home includes a little over 600 dahlias,\u201d Ed said. Ed is a Master Gardener from the class of 2023. He has a large pollinating garden, a home orchard, a berry patch, Japanese Maples, as well as many ornamental plants. When he isn’t gardening on his 5 acres, you can find Ed on the Olympic Discovery Trail walking his eight dogs.<\/p>\n

In addition to the scheduled educational presentation, a team of Clallam County Master Gardeners will be available at the Woodcock Demonstration Garden from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on September 20th to answer all gardening questions.
