Each 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.
Nothing about harvesting dahlia tubers is short work. It takes us weeks to get everything out of the ground and prepared for winter storage. Every clump is hand dug with a pitchfork, rinsed, cured, divided, and finally, put into storage where they receive daily checks.
CLOSED! Congratulations to Sabrina! Winner receives a box of a dozen your-choice dahlias from our collection. To enter, simply leave a comment below and share what new flower varieties you hope to grow this year.
*Please note, this giveaway is open to U.S. residents only. The winner will be announced Saturday, Nov 5th before the sale.

This past Motherʼs Day, we opened the gates to Rooted Flowers for our very first Bloom & Brunch, and what unfolded felt like something out of a dream. After weeks of gray skies and unpredictable spring weather, the sun showed up right on cue—and so did all of you.

This past weekend, we had the pleasure of designing wedding florals for a stunning celebration at Valley View Farm in Haydenville, MA. From seed to centerpiece, every flower was grown right here on our farm in Agawam, MA—a full farm-to-table floral experience for a couple who wanted something meaningful, local, and naturally beautiful.

At Rooted Flowers, we’re not following a traditional model. We’re building something entirely different—a way of working and living that reflects the rhythm of the seasons, honors the land, and keeps family, beauty, and sustainability at its core.
