absolutely no idea what i’m doing here. went to get some veggies for my raised garden bed (not pictured) and the plant store had a mother’s day special where you got a free dahlia with every $10 purchase.
there was no info about the plants so i just put them in this small area in front of the house that i cleaned up.
guess we will see what happens? any advice will be taken!

This is an automatic reminder regarding r/dahlias Rule 3:
When reasonable*, posters should make a good-faith effort to identify which variety/varieties are shown in their photo(s). If you don’t know for certain, please say so. Someone will usually know!
*Common-sense exceptions to this rule will be honored, such as if the photo does not contain a blossom, or if your photo contains large volumes (such as in wide field shots).
If you’ve already done this, thank you! No further action required.
If not, please add a reply to this comment and confirm if you know the name of your dahlia variety/varieties shown in the photo(s). Alternately, if you’re uncertain of the variety name(s), it’s ok to say that, too.

They may be a little close there, but looks like good sun. You probably will have to dig them in the fall. With your downspout there, it will likely be too wet and they will rot in ground. Enjoy them!
I’d put a few stakes around them now so you can twine them up in jail when they begin growing. You may or may not have really tall ones and you don’t want to damage the roots later.
