I just wanted to take a moment and share how I plant my dahlia tubers. It’s very simply and quick. Dahlias are a joy to have in the garden and are one of my favorite summer blooms.

Great information. Thanks for sharing. I am waiting on my dahlia tubers to arrive so I can get them in the ground and hopefully see beautiful flowers all around the garden this year.
Thank you for all the wonderful information. My tubers were more of a clump with like an old stem on them so figured the stem part needed to be plant at the top. Fingers crossed I did it correctly. I have one more to plant tomorrow. Maybe I'll take a picture of the tuber I haven't planted yet and put on IG ;o)
I’m so excited to see these beauties grow for you my friend! And keeping my fingers crossed that my forth try from seed works out… so far it looks like they will 🙂
for a min. ,I thought I was at the London royal Albert hall for a musical show
I’d be careful saying it’s the same conditions for a tomato plant because tomatoes will thrive in high heat, heavy rain and humidity, but Dahlias do not do well in such conditions and the tubers will rot in heavy rain.
I just bought 4 dahlia tubers for $0.75 each on clearance @the grocery store . They are already sprouting about 2 inches . Thanks for the tips to plant them .
What a cute video thank you for the info was this planted in early spring?
Not good music . Sorry!
When you said that you gonna sprinkler the compost and then the music combined is make me feel like I’m in the wonderland and you are a tinkle bell fairy to me.
what type of dahlias are in the picture? i didn't see the name mentioned
Helpful but the music is distracting.
This was a big help in understanding how to plant dahlias, since this is my first time. You provided clear instruction and covered information that others did not cover in their videos. Thanks for the info. Wish me luck!
Great video!
Nice pappy plant!
your soil looks so dark and rich! its first thing I noticed.
