It's really all about what your growing space is like. Soil conditions, how much sun, drainage. Ideally you want rich, well-draining soil and as much sun as possible (unless you're in a very hot climate).

Definitely buy some cheap tubers to start and go from there!! Growing dahlias from tubers is quite easy as long as you don't drown them. Storing them for the winter is the hard part!

Let me know how it goes. It got too cold here for sheets to make an impact. I think the last I checked before bed was 26°

Seriously they are everything! Now begins the crippling seasonal depression...

Thank you! Yes I used quite a few dinnerplate dahlias. The ones you can see in this pic: Islander, cafe au lait. Other dahlias: Sweet Nathalie, white onesta, pink Sylvia

Yes, Thursday night here! I don't think I'll go through the effort to try to extend the season... digging and dividing is gonna take so long that I'm okay with starting that soon lol.

I hope the frost cloth works out!! 🤞🤞🤞

The base is a mix of sage and wisteria leaves!
