    Last year was my second season with my dahlia cut flower garden. I was able to grow, dig, clean, store, divide, and multiply my crop. I dug them again in November, cleaned them and set them on a table in my barn, to prepare for packing. I left them too long and sadly lost most all of them. I kept some saying "there has to be ONE that didn't die." Fingers crossed. I tried to look at the bright side - I got to buy new tubers and plan to label them this time. It was so sad to lose them all - Lesson learned - let them dry for 1 DAY...not one week. Thanks for inspiring me!

    I keep telling my fam to grow them bc of how easy they are, esp in Texas… I wouldn’t want to dig them up either! Live the idea of covering with tarp AND mulch… often have an issue with water, bc nothing else explains why they didn’t grow.

    I'm so curious to see how your overwintering experiment goes! Two falls ago I missed a few tubers as I was digging them up, and they came back (with no mulch and sub-zero winter temps!) last spring. I was shocked, as I'm also zone 6 and thought they would never survive our winters. My success rate with tuber storage has been terrible, so this past fall I decided to just leave them all in the ground and see what happens this spring. Even if only half survive, that's better than my success rate at storing the tubers. :)

    I bought a mixed pack of "Butterfly and Bee" bulbs from Costco that had two pink HS Juliet dahlias in it and they were in great big clumps with like 15 tubers on each. Some of them were dried out and 3 broke off but there were so many I'm hopeful I still get lots of blooms. I've never tried growing dahlias before so I'm watching everything! This was helpful.

    I had a couple dahlias last year in a pot. When winter came, I took the tubers out of the pot and I put them in layers of sand in another pot that I moved inside and put in my laundry room.
    The other day. I was planting pansies and decided to check them and they had sprouted! So I planted them and will baby them for while. I am a zone 8 I believe.. NW Arkansas, And we will probably have another freeze but nothing severe and I will cover them or bring them in if that shows up in our forecast! This was the first time I ever grew Dahlias and loved them so I hope they turn out ok!! I love the labelling idea and will do that next year.

    We (zone 8a, coastal NC) have had unseasonable weather for a number of weeks. I have struggled to hold hubs back. He is so eager to direct sow cucumbers in the garden and is pressuring me to start tomato seedlings. Holding him back has been a task. Thankfully today was cooler and windy with colder temps expected next week. That will hopefully cool his ambition.

    This is the first time I’ve seen your videos. I loved watching your process of dividing and pre-sprouting Dahlias. I live in Queensland, Australia so my seasons don’t match yours but I can still learn from you. Thanks.

    Amazing tuber's,. I could almost feel them. I'm going to try my hand at these flower's. My climate is so humid N E Okla. Russell and Cheddar are so cute, just doing their own thing.

    I enjoyed this very much. I am a fan of Dahlias and grow every year from tubers. Will you please do a video maybe on growing begonias. Thank You!!

    Wonder if Laura noticed Russell enjoying her drink in the beginning of the video.

    I am about to do this with some tubers I saved last year from dahlias I grew from seeds! 😁
    Idk about everyone else, but I would love a greenhouse tour to know what all those beautiful plants are behind you!

    Laura, you’re a breath of fresh air. So grateful for you, your family, your knowledge and your channel. I am wondering when you would presprout if you don’t have a greenhouse to grow them on a bit in, but want to give them a little bit of a head start? I’m in 5b/6a western Mass. Thanks!

    This is really interesting and excited to see if it worked. I was a bit distracted by Russell sharing your drink.

    Everyone’s all focused on Russell and I’m dying over Aarons’s creepy growth point reaction 😂😂
