Plant tubers after spring frost in well drained soil in full sun.  Plant 4-6" deep and 18-24" apart. Most plants will grow to be 4-5' and should be staked or netted. To help avoid rot, wait to water tubers until they have sprouted. Dahlias will bloom from summer until the first frost. Dead-head or cut for continuous blooms.

Live locally?  We will allow local buyers to pick up their dahlia tubers at the Blacksburg Farmers Market. We will not allow farm pick up. If you choose this option you will be sent an email in the spring with a notification of your pick up date.  Pick up dates will be on several Saturdays in April and May at the Blacksburg Farmers Market. Choose the pick up option at check out.
