What do these frosty looking tips indicate? Is it salvageable or should I toss? How do I prevent this in the future?

    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.

    The pot is too small, and one it has grown out like that you need to fill in around the plant, the stems are hollow and they a known to snap in a heavy wind or rain. The whiting might just be a nutrient issue, but I closer picture might help identify potential issues. Also look up dahlia diseases for a run down of potential dahlia conditions and how to fix them.
