Dahlias | Giveaway

Rooted Flowers Dahlia HarvestEach spring we plant one individual tuber. These potato looking fingers grow more within the soil, so that by fall, we can dig them up and divide. One tuber might yield 6 or more new tubers that can then again be planted. This process repeats itself every year.

Every clump is hand dug with a pitchfork, rinsed, cured, divided, and finally, put into storage where they receive daily checks.

The Dahlia’s are are so pretty! I hope to grow dahlias and sunflowers this coming year! I am currently working on a lemon tree. I have lemons growing so hopefully this winter they turn yellow!

haven’t grown dahlias in many years, since we moved to a condo, but the Labyrinth are gorgeous and we’ve identified a spot where we plan to plant some next season
