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.

Rooted Flowers dahlia dividingNothing 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.

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

The Dahlia Season that Almost Wasn't

These circumstances mean a more limited selection for our upcoming annual tuber sale on November 12th, with priority given to our healthy tunnel-grown dahlias. Despite fewer quantities, we remain committed to offering diverse, quality dahlias and will provide immediate nationwide shipping/pick up, with spring shipping as an option.
