A quick dahlia grow guide for success: 1. Plant after your last frost, when soil temps are around 60 degrees F. Choose well draining soil and a location that gets plenty of sun. If you live in an extra hot climate though, planting where they’ll get some late afternoon shade is ideal. 12 inches apart often works well for spacing. 2. Wait to water until the tubers sprout above ground, unless you have very dry soil. In that case, make sure it gets a light watering so that your soil is lightly damp.

How to plant dahlia cuttings (and yes—they’ll make tubers) If you’re trying to stretch your stock or only have one tuber of a variety, taking cuttings is a great way to multiply it over the winter. Cuttings will form tubers their first year—but they’re often small and tightly clumped. This planting method gives them the best shot at making usable, storable tubers by the end of the season. 🌞 🌱Cuttings should be planted at the same time as your tubers—once the soil is warm enough for tomatoes.

A ‘real time’ video on what it looks like to pinch a dahlia. Not an essential step in order to grow, but it is if you want a lot more flowers out of the same plant. Pinching just refers to removing part of the main stem when the dahlia is in early stages of growth. This will trigger the plant to send out lateral stems instead of one giant stalk. More stems = more flowers. It’s a very simple process, it’s just best done when your plants are between 6-8 inches tall. Simply remove the middle as sho

Want long stems? It’s very simple. You must cut deep! Depending on the variety, aim to cut past 2-3 leaf sets. This stem was a solid 36” long. 😎 This is dahlia Askwith Minnie and the plant was still plenty tall after this cut. 🌱✂️💐 #dahlia #dahlias #flowerfarmer #cutflowers #cutflowergarden

Here’s how to wake up your dahlia tubers so you can get cuttings from them this spring. This is an amazing way to get more plants for free, I’m hoping to generate 100s for my new farm this season. The cuttings will be a clone of the mother plant and are usually more vibrant plants too. The cuttings will root, flower and form their own tubers in the coming season - how amazing is that!! Stay tuned for the next post where I’ll show you how to take a cutting. Full length video coming this Sunday at

Hi guys just a little bit of dahlia information for you all , to encourage longer stems on dahlias for cut flowers, disbudding is key. This involves removing the side buds that form around the main central bud, encouraging the plant to focus its energy on growing a single, long stem with a larger bloom. Additionally, cutting deeply when harvesting, just above a set of leaves, promotes longer stems on subsequent blooms. Have a great day #fyp #foryou #foryourepage #for #flowers #gardening #gardent
