Hi all, just looking for some advice. My Dahlias are entering their 2nd year and I intentionally left them in the ground over winter (mulched for cover). We had a pretty wet winter so I wanted to take a look at them to see if there was any rot etc.

There doesn’t appear to be anything of concern (from my novice eye). But I was wondering if there was any tips / suggestions on what to do with the old stem etc.

Thanks in advance !

    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.
