When to Plant

Plant outdoors in spring after frost danger has passed and the soil has warmed. Shipping in spring does not mean the ground is ready for planting in every location; use your local frost dates and soil conditions to plan.

If tubers arrive before planting conditions are suitable, keep them protected from frost and excessive moisture, and follow the handling instructions supplied with your order.

Planting & Growing Care

• Choose full sun; light shade can be useful in hot-summer areas.
• Use fertile, well-drained soil rather than a site that stays wet.
• Plant in a sheltered position away from strong winds.
• Follow the planting depth and spacing instructions supplied with your tubers, leaving room for the mature plant.
• During active growth, maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging the roots or allowing repeated drying out.

Plant in groups for a fuller display, or use individual plants as accents among other summer flowers. Add support if stems need it as the plants develop.

Growing in Containers

Choose a sturdy pot with drainage holes and enough space for the tuber, roots and mature plant. Use a well-draining potting mix, and position the container where it receives good light with shelter from strong winds.

Check moisture frequently in warm weather because pots dry faster than garden soil. Allow excess water to drain freely and avoid leaving the pot standing in collected water.

Seasonal Expectations

Tubers need time to produce shoots, establish roots and develop flowers. Expect a summer display rather than flowers immediately after planting. Bloom timing and performance vary with planting date, temperature, sunlight and care.

With suitable conditions, dahlias can flower from midsummer into fall until frost ends active growth. No fixed flowering date or bloom quantity is guaranteed.

Cut Flowers & Aftercare

Cut suitable blooms with clean garden scissors for indoor arrangements, and remove faded flowers to keep plants tidy. Continue caring for green foliage while plants are actively growing.

Dahlias are frost-sensitive. In cold-winter areas, lift tubers after the first frost has affected the foliage and before the ground freezes. Store them in a frost-free place using locally appropriate dahlia storage guidance. Overwintering success depends on climate and storage conditions.

Tuber Safety

For ornamental planting only. Do not eat the supplied tubers or other plant parts. Keep planting material away from children and pets and store it separately from food.

Wear gloves if you have sensitive skin, wash hands after handling, and follow any additional instructions supplied with your tubers.
